Real Estate & Infrastructure Capital

Digital Realty is aggressively pursuing private capital, announcing plans for multiple new fund series, including an open-end U.S. vehicle targeting a cornerstone raise of up to $3bn to fuel data center expansion globally. Separately, in Australia, Coogee Sands Hotel & Apartments was acquired by a pro-invest entity for A$100M as part of a strategy to repurpose hospitality assets into alternative temporary accommodation models like serviced apartments. Furthermore, Australian regulators are examining performance test overhauls that could introduce an ‘emerging covered asset class,’ designed to unlock more institutional capital for affordable housing investments.
