Swiss Life Asset Managers invests in the office, residential, healthcare, logistics and commercial asset classes as well as retail and hotel
Swiss Life Asset Managers manages and administers real estate worth around CHF 89.6 billion in Europe. In addition to properties in traditional real estate asset classes (residential, commercial, healthcare etc.), we manage other types of real estate, such as hotels. We closely follow the emergence of new trends and asset classes.

Office properties
- 29% of the assets under management are office properties in Europe.
- The focus is on high-quality office properties in central locations in major metropolitan regions (e.g. London, Paris, Berlin, Munich or Zurich).

Residential (incl. student housing)
- 32% of the assets under management are residential properties in Europe.
- Residential properties are particularly attractive in metropolitan regions with favourable socio-economic fundamental data and are important to our fund and investment strategy.

Retail
- 13% of the assets under management are retail properties in Europe.
- We are seeing structural changes and expect a growing combination of brick-and-mortar and online retail (e.g. click & collect).
- Our strategic focus is on urban regions as well as consumer-friendly shops and on-site supply.

Industrial and logistics real estate
- 14% of the assets under management are industrial and logistics properties in Europe.
- The asset class is of great strategic importance to us. The growth of e-commerce, higher inventories and scarcity of stock support future rental prospects.

- The company's internal competency centre for Light industrial and logistics is BEOS AG.

Healthcare properties
