However, despite the prevalence of Irish-domiciled funds as the investment vehicle of choice for investors in Irish real estate, we\u2019ve yet to fully capitalise on the rapidly growing segment of pan-European real estate investment.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">With the right policy, regulatory and industry actions, Ireland has a compelling opportunity to become a premier domicile and servicing centre for cross-border real estate funds in Europe. This article outlines Ireland\u2019s competitive advantages and presents a use case for the Irish Collective Asset-management Vehicle (ICAV) as an investment vehicle of choice for pan-European real estate.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Market opportunity<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The steady growth of real estate as an institutional asset class remains strong, with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/ie\/insights\/cre-cross-border-investment-u-s-capital-flows-and-european-opportunities\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">real estate investment throughout Europe<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> seeing particularly substantial growth. This is driven by attractive yields, inflation-hedging capabilities and portfolio diversification.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The rise of cross-border structures has facilitated inter-country investment vehicles, primarily based in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/lu\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Luxembourg<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/nl\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">the Netherlands<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, for pooling European real estate assets. The demand for centralised administration in tax-efficient, well-regulated jurisdictions is increasing.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We\u2019re approaching a market consensus that the asset repricing across Europe has settled and transactional activity is beginning to improve. This is an ideal time for asset managers to consider raising new funds or deploying capital that has been raised for this eventuality.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ireland\u2019s advantages<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ireland offers a host of tangible benefits \u2013 including a stable currency, English as the primary business language, extensive tax treaty networks, and a reliable common law legal system \u2013 making it an exceptionally attractive jurisdiction for commercial activities.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Investment management can be conducted from Ireland or delegated to international asset managers, and the established Irish funds ecosystem allows global investors to benefit from the most appropriate expertise of local service providers (fund operations, depositary services, fund administration, regulatory, legal, tax advisors etc).\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Also, many market participants, such as pensions funds and real estate or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/ie\/expertise\/why-ireland-is-an-ideal-destination-for-private-equity-firms\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">private equity managers<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, already have an Irish presence. Irish structures work very effectively for these types of investors and the relationships can be scaled up efficiently.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What do institutional investors need?<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In order to capitalise on this substantial opportunity, a series of targeted measures and refinements could be introduced to enhance confidence in regulatory stability, bolster certainty and underscore the robustness of Irish fund credentials. The specialist talent base that exists in Ireland is world class and has benefited from the market dislocation of the global financial crisis to reorientate and gain broader experience. The promotion of a tech savvy and capable workforce ensures that matters such as data, AI and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/ie\/services\/esg-data-collection\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">ESG<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> can easily be integrated into practice.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Existing ICAVs could be scaled up to critical mass and there are opportunities to extend the investment universe for current operations to include real estate adjacent sectors such as infrastructure, debt, and asset-backed security strategies. This is also an opportunity to showcase capabilities in other structures, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/ie\/insights\/guide-to-eltif-2-0\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">European Long-Term Investment Funds (ELTIFs)<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Current European situation<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Since 2022, European real estate has undergone a marked recalibration which, as referenced above, now appears to be broadly stabilising across the various markets and sectors. Access to capital has improved appreciably, with investors now reaping the benefits of increased lender participation and a consequential broadening of the lending universe. This presents the necessary foundation for any party at the start of a fund-raising campaign to build upon for their intended specific business plan.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The majority of pan-European real estate funds exhibit the same characteristics, for example in terms of lifecycle duration, being open-ended in nature, and with prescribed asset\/sector distribution. This homogeneity allows for benchmarking and peer group metric comparison (e.g. using the MSCI Pan-European Property Fund Index) for investors seeking to deploy capital. Aligning this with a common Irish structure and the industry scale to achieve flexibility and efficiency would allow them to benefit from the streamlining of operations.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The ICAV proposition<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ireland has a fit-for-purpose structure, the ICAV, which in the real estate sector has to date really only been used for holding Irish properties. An ICAV that invests more than 25% in Irish property is deemed an Irish Real Estate Fund (IREF), which depending on investor circumstances (unless exempt) may suffer Irish 20% withholding tax on relevant income and gains.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Where an ICAV does not hold any Irish real estate (and has no intention to do so in the future) it should not be deemed to be an IREF and, therefore, should not be chargeable to Irish tax on its relevant income or gains.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The ICAV is also not subject to withholding tax on distributions or redemptions where there are no Irish taxable investors. Instead, any tax obligations typically arise in the jurisdiction where the real estate assets are located, offering significant flexibility in cross-border investment.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The ICAV provides a corporate structure that is governed by a board of directors and owned by shareholders. As a regulated fund, it benefits from the robust oversight and investor protections that come with regulatory supervision. Consequently, the ICAV requires authorisation from the Central Bank of Ireland to carry on a business. An ICAV that holds real estate assets is considered a Qualifying Investor Alternative Investment Fund (QIAIF) and is regulated under the EU\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/iqeq.com\/ie\/services\/aifm-services-depositary-services\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD)<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. This alignment with European regulatory standards enhances its credibility and appeal to institutional investors.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Furthermore, ICAVs that do not qualify as IREFs are not subject to the leverage restrictions set out by CP 145, which imposes a 60% leverage limit on Irish property funds. This flexibility makes the ICAV an attractive option for both third-party and shareholder funding, supporting a wide range of investment strategies.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">AIFMD II and current Central Bank of Ireland interaction with the industry can be used to present new ways of tailoring the ICAV for a broader audience and wider asset targeting.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This all makes the ICAV a fitting structure for pan-European real estate investments.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The ICAV as an ELTIF<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">ELTIFs are designed to channel capital into long-term projects that support the development of European infrastructure. They are uniquely positioned to be marketed across the EU to both professional and retail investors, thereby broadening access to a diverse investor base. An ICAV can be structured as an ELTIF in Ireland, thus providing the benefits of a corporate regulated structure. ELTIFs commonly direct their investments in the infrastructure sector toward areas such as social infrastructure and renewable energy.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Possible implementation and considerations<\/h2>\n<h3>Substance requirements<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Following the introduction of the BEPS Multilateral Instrument, which allowed governments to implement tax treaty measures without the need to renegotiate protocols with each individual country, entities must prove sufficient substance in a jurisdiction to access the provisions of the double taxation treaty. This shift has posed challenges for the continued use of holding vehicles in certain jurisdictions.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ireland, however, stands out among the credible alternatives, as its talent pool and highly skilled service providers make it possible to achieve required substance. Moreover, Ireland\u2019s established reputation as a domicile of choice for investment funds, private debt and aircraft leasing means that many large, diversified players with presence in Ireland already possess the necessary substance.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Next steps for the industry<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">To firmly establish Ireland as a preferred domicile for pan-European real estate funds, it\u2019s essential to adopt a coordinated and strategic approach that leverages the strengths of the entire ecosystem. This vision can only be realised through robust industry collaboration, bringing together key stakeholders such as legal and tax advisors, asset and fund managers, and fund administrators. By working together and adopting a collaborative approach, the full suite of services required by pan-European real estate funds will not only be available but can be delivered at scale.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A unified industry effort is needed to streamline processes and enhance Ireland\u2019s value proposition in the eyes of international investors.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As set out in this article, one of the most promising opportunities lies in the promotion of the ICAV as a structure of choice for pan-European real estate investments. By proactively raising awareness of the ICAV\u2019s benefits, Ireland can further differentiate itself as a forward-thinking and investor-centric jurisdiction.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ultimately, by embracing a collaborative and strategic mindset, Ireland can solidify its reputation as a destination of choice for investment funds, attract new business in the form of pan-European real estate investment structures and support the continued growth of the sector.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ireland has the potential to be an investment management fund location of choice for real estate funds. Most commentators believe that European real estate is a sector that will enjoy improved transactional activity as well as significant new fund launches over the next two to three years. There\u2019s no reason why Ireland can\u2019t be a primary hub for this market resurgence, and we hope this article demonstrates how this could be achieved.\u00a0<\/span><span
