This collaboration will connect Japanese institutional investors with specialised, ESG-compliant German real estate opportunities while strengthening economic ties between Germany and Japan.

Through this alliance, Kensho will introduce Periskop Partners' investment strategies in sectors like Senior Living, Logistics, Light Industrial, and Land Development to Japanese institutional investors, utilising its fund manager cooperation model.

This partnership expands Kensho's existing real estate activities (residential, office, and renewable energy) into new market segments. Both companies believe this underscores the ongoing appeal of the German real estate market.

Lars Meisinger, CEO of Periskop Partners, said: “We are seeing growing interest in the eurozone, particularly in Germany. As the world’s third-largest economy, Germany also offers the broadest and most liquid real estate market in continental Europe. We share long-term perspectives, professionalism, and a commitment to sustainable investing with the Kensho Investment Group. Our joint ambition is to provide Japanese investors with a structured and sustainable path to selected real estate strategies.”

Leonard Meyer zu Brickwedde, founder, president, and CEO of Kensho Investment Group, added: “Our partnership with Periskop Partners is part of our fund manager-oriented cooperation approach. The goal is to provide Japanese investors with structured access to clearly defined, sector-specific real estate strategies and to support them over the long term in their investment decisions in the German market.”
