The Platform

We are the independent investment management business of the Credberg Group. Credberg Investment Management (CIM) was founded to leverage the groups strong local knowledge, deep understanding of the capital markets and age-old relationships to drive superior returns for global and local investors and to build out an independent principal side business to better position the group for expansion.

We believe that hands-on management and in-depth local knowledge drives performance. We aim to deliver this with strong on-the-ground execution capabilities via deep local knowledge, a strong and credible team, and strong relationships in our chosen investment markets.

As the experts in Indian real estate, CIM is uniquely positioned to identify sector trends and capitalise on opportunities much ahead of the curve. Investing in situations that generate scalable, sustainable, and risk-adjusted returns while leveraging the team’s expertise in investment structuring and thorough understanding of India’s investment regulations is a huge differentiator. Adhering to and ensuring strong transparency, governance, and reporting norms are the bedrock of the firm’s work ethic.

Investment Philosophy

CIM’s approach to fund management focuses first and foremost on the clients and integrates the rich experience and full resources of the firm to maximize investment results. We combine a fundamental, value-oriented investment approach with independent research and insights derived from our years of experience to identify high quality, well-located properties with potential for long-term capital appreciation and sustainable income. We believe long-term returns can be achieved through active asset and property management.

We are focused on driving net operating income – the bedrock of property performance – through diligent purchasing, active asset management and maximising performance through structuring.

CIM engages in a rigorous process to ensure each asset is consistent with the appropriate investment strategy that meets our clients’ needs and provides the highest probability of meeting their investment objectives.

Portfolio Buildout

Our portfolio build out process combines research, investments, asset management, and strategic insight to build portfolios that can achieve our clients’ investment objectives.

Our portfolio construction integrates top-down market analysis with bottom-up property level expertise to create portfolios across the investment spectrum. Our portfolios converge investor objectives with market opportunities by integrating all resources of the firm to execute core, core-plus, and value-added strategies. CIM’s portfolio build -out process is research-driven and focuses on the balance between return potential and risk control.

Through long-term strategic planning and the implementation of short-term tactical planning, CIM identifies target markets and submarkets for investment and evaluates how potential investments in these markets would contribute to overall return objectives. Strategic and tactical plans are analysed quarterly based on changes in macro-economic and capital market trends and bottom-up market and submarket economic, demographic, and supply/demand shifts.

Acquisition Principles

In evaluating acquisitions, our primary goal is the preservation of capital and the maximization of risk-adjusted returns.

While evaluating acquisitions, CIM’s focus is privately on identifying properties with stable sources of distributable income coupled with innovative deal structuring to minimize risk and maximize returns.

We further focus on identifying asset enhancement potential and executing strategies to realize their full potential, utilizing capital structures that can withstand volatile market conditions to enhance returns and

preserve capital, mitigating risk through geographic and asset  diversification and meticulous underwriting by judiciously employing analytics, reasonable assumptions, and defensible growth projections to determine property valuations.

Rigorous risk management and corporate governance oversight to protect investors’ interest is never compromised while executing new acquisitions.

Investment Process

Our investment process combines research and market analysis, detailed and comprehensive due diligence, and proven market expertise to make attractive risk-adjusted investments.

Research Based

CIM utilizes real-time information on market conditions, combining it with local market intelligence and capital market data to develop an accurate understanding of the trends that will impact the performance of assets that we acquire in our portfolios.

Comprehensive Due Diligence

CIM’s investment team sources, underwrites, screens, negotiates, and closes all investments consistent with our client’s investment guidelines. With a local presence and a deep understanding of each market, our experienced investment professionals source opportunities nationwide through an extensive network of principals, partners, brokers, developers, lenders, industry contacts, and local market experts. This network of sources has been developed and refined over more than 50 years of combined active market participation at all stages of the investment cycle.

Effective Execution

Credberg is a trusted name in the local market and our reputation attracts potential deals and joint venture partners that prefer a reliable buyer. Our intensive underwriting and due diligence process reassures potential sellers/partners that expected transactions can be completed successfully and quickly and leads them to seek CIM proactively for future transactions. We have strong shared relationships nurtured over decades and our reputation helps us attract the right quality of assets at advantageous prices.

Active Management

CIM believes every real estate asset to be a unique operating business that must be actively managed to achieve the portfolio’s investment objectives by seeking to maximize returns while controlling risk. Active asset management is a crucial part of the value that we add. The key to protecting a client’s investment is anticipating market changes through on-the-ground resources and direct oversight of each asset, working closely with tenants, on-site professionals, and other members of the investment team.

Detailed Disposition Process

CIM’s disposition process contemplates that every property in a portfolio is a potential disposition candidate under the appropriate circumstances. Regular analysis of strategic and tactical factors both at the asset level and the portfolio level determines the value that can be achieved by selling an asset. Our detailed disposition execution seeks to achieve maximum potential value for each portfolio.

Asset Management

CIM’s asset management focus encompasses all aspects of active asset management including leasing, property management oversight, capital improvement management, and tenant retention and outreach, all designed to maximize the performance potential of each asset throughout its holding period.

Asset Management professionals are involved in the development, implementation, and monitoring of investment strategy including post-transaction operations, on-site property managers, leasing activity, capital budget programs, and all operations including renovation, maintenance, and rehabilitation and on-going management. We also have a strong commitment to communication and service to enhance our tenants experience with CIM.
