Immobilien: Union Invest Real Estate baut um – und Stellen ab
Der Hamburger Immobilienfondsmanager stellt sich neu auf, dabei fallen Arbeitsplätze weg. Das Unternehmen will in Zukunft auf Mieterträge statt Bewertungsaufschläge setzen.
Hamburg - Union Investment Real Estate, a subsidiary of DZ Bank Group, is restructuring its operations in Hamburg, streamlining its management structure and reducing workforce over the next six years. Bloomberg reported on Monday that the company will now have three business areas instead of four, including Fondsmanagement, Real Estate Management, and Operations.
The aim of this restructuring is to make Union Investment Real Estate more agile and adaptable. The personnel reduction will be carried out in a socially responsible manner, involving severance payments and a voluntary program. No mandatory layoffs are planned.
The newly created Real Estate Management department, led by Karim Esch, combines investment and asset management. Michael Bütter, Chairman of the Management Board, stated that "With our integrated investment and asset management, we are best positioned to take advantage of the recovery of real estate markets." He further explained that "We expect high rental yield returns in the new market cycle to gain greater significance for overall returns than valuation premiums. For this, we are building a comprehensive real estate management."
