The Fund is focused on building a portfolio of next-generation carbon neutral real estate projects in the office and residential sector, particularly brown-to-green urban redevelopment and retrofit projects in central areas of Milan and Rome where corporate demand for high quality sustainable real estate is strong. The portfolio will be fully aligned with European taxonomy on decarbonization, and all buildings will be LEED certified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"leading-line-height-paragraph tracking-paragraph font-paragraph max-w-container-paragraph text-left text-paragraph-sm! md:text-paragraph-base!\" id=\"paragraph-6800c7\">The Fund will last a decade and will primarily target international institutional investors, with a goal of raising \u20ac500m in 2024. Through financial leveraging the Fund will have an overall investment capacity of around double this amount, and a pipeline of projects worth more than \u20ac1bn has already been identified. The target return rate (levered IRR) is 14%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"leading-line-height-paragraph tracking-paragraph font-paragraph max-w-container-paragraph text-left text-paragraph-sm! md:text-paragraph-base!\" id=\"paragraph-6800fb\">COF III is the third opportunistic fund launched by COIMA. It follows COF I, which is already disinvested with returns exceeding the initial target (13% levered IRR versus the expected 8%) and COF II, which raised over \u20ac500m from leading international investors. COF II is now fully invested one year ahead of schedule and its returns are currently in line with the levered IRR goal of 12%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"leading-line-height-paragraph tracking-paragraph font-paragraph max-w-container-paragraph text-left text-paragraph-sm! md:text-paragraph-base!\" id=\"paragraph-68012f\">COF III forms part of COIMA\u2019s wider strategic commitment to ESG-led real estate. COIMA is seeking to raise over \u20ac3bn in investment over 2024-2026 through sustainable investment vehicles classified under Art. 8 or Art. 9 of the European Union\u2019s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). As well as COF III, these include COIMA\u2019s ESG City Impact Fund (COIMA Impact), which so far has raised over \u20ac800m from leading Italian institutional investors and is set to reach \u20ac1bn in investment by year end. This fund has now approved an increase in its target size from to \u20ac1bn to \u20ac2bn. COIMA has also planned the launch of a series of SFDR-aligned programmatic funds focused on decarbonization in specific sectors, including residential and tourism, which together are targeting \u20ac2bn in investment through to 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"leading-line-height-paragraph tracking-paragraph font-paragraph max-w-container-paragraph text-left text-paragraph-sm! md:text-paragraph-base!\" id=\"paragraph-680162\"><strong>Manfredi Catella, Founder and CEO of COIMA SGR, said: <\/strong><em>\u201cThe first close of COF III and the expansion of our COIMA Impact Fund, along with other key milestones achieved by our sustainable investment vehicles, underlines Italy\u2019s continued importance as a strategic market for national and international capital focused on sustainable urban regeneration. Cities have a hugely important role in the transition to a low carbon future. At COIMA, we are ready to play our part in accelerating this journey by delivering sustainable low carbon real estate, with a focus on building re-use, that has a positive social impact. But to do so requires working closely with our partners, including national and supranational investors, institutions, real asset operators and public and third sector organizations. Through our shared commitment we can rise to the challenges posed by the climate emergency, as well as new social and demographic trends that are transforming lifestyles.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"leading-line-height-paragraph tracking-paragraph font-paragraph max-w-container-paragraph text-left text-paragraph-sm! md:text-paragraph-base!\" id=\"paragraph-6801b3\">Underlining COIMA\u2019s commitment to ESG-led real estate, three COIMA funds were recently awarded 5-star GRESB ratings, with scores among the highest globally. The COIMA Impact Fund, which is the largest discretionary investment fund focused on urban regeneration ever raised in Italy, achieved a record score of 99\/100 points, putting it among a select group of 23 leading funds globally. COIMA\u2019s COF II fund also received a GRESB 5-star rating putting it first place among its peer groups in Europe for the Office category, with a score of 99\/100 points. Investors in COF III include domestic and international institutional investors, including the Quebec Deposit Insurance Fund (Ivanhoe Cambridge), Poste Vita, and Inarcassa, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1751,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","immagine_archivio":"1781","sottotitolo":"","card_title":"COIMA launches Brown-to-Green Real Estate fund with \u20ac500m target","society":"coima","main_downloadable":"1782","display_sites":["com","sgr","rem"],"_ensoul_lang":"en","_ensoul_tr_group":"5e557729-5700-4071-b578-527115a84838","pdf_url":"https:\/\/coima.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CS_COIMA_COF_III_21_11_2023_IT.pdf"},"press-society":[44],"press-year":[49],"tipo-comunicato":[14],"class_list":["post-1783","press_release","type-press_release","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","press_society-coima","press_year-49","tipo_comunicato-altro"],"acf":{"immagine_archivio":1781,"sottotitolo":"","card_title":"COIMA launches Brown-to-Green Real Estate fund with \u20ac500m target","society":"coima","main_downloadable":1782,"downloadables":null,"display_sites":["com","sgr","rem"],"pdf_url":"https:\/\/coima.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CS_COIMA_COF_III_21_11_2023_IT.pdf"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
