State of Wisconsin Investment Board (SWIB) has approved a $50m (鈧�43.1m) commitment to CBRE GIP Medical Office Venture Fund, a core US medical office fund.
SWIB鈥檚 latest investment follows a $100m commitment the pension fund made to CBRE GIP Medical Office Venture in August 2018.
The $144bn pension fund told 麻豆映画 Real Assets that it has decided to invest in medical office buildings due to 鈥渢he stability of the tenant base with the property type and anticipated demand for healthcare services鈥�.
The fund鈥檚 manager CBRE Investment Management declined a request for comment.
The Medical Office Venture Fund, which will mostly be buying existing properties, could target some development opportunities.
SWIB also disclosed in its meeting document that it has made a $150m commitment into the US Cold Storage fund.
According to sources, the fund is expected to have a maximum of five investors as it targets a fundraise of $300m to $400m.
