German Retail Portfolios

German Retail Strategy

Featured Project

Since 2004, Taurus has established itself as a major real estate player in the German retail market. Collectively,the German Retail Funds represent one of the largest retail portfolios in Germany, with over €600 millioninvested in over 100 assets, and demonstrate Taurus’ ability to execute an acquisition strategy withcross-border institutional and high-net worth capital. Taurus intends to grow the overall German RetailPortfolio to around €1.5 billion by taking advantage of the current distressed pricing in the market resultingfrom overleveraged and undercapitalized sellers including the liquidation of open ended funds and thedistressed exit of products by UK and Irish syndicators. Due to its signi�cant and experienced on-the-groundpresence, connections with major retailers and strong relationship with lenders, Taurus provides unmatchedproperty and asset management capabilities in Germany.

At the inception of the Hornbach Portfolio and Retail Funds, the overall German realestate market was in a transitional phase in terms of preferred ownership vehicles, andvalues were very attractive compared to most other larger EU countries, speci�cally inthe retail asset class, while interest rates were low. �e Hornbach Portfolio is intended toprovide a stable long term high-yield leveraged cash �ow to investors, with taxbene�cial treatment of capital gains a�er the 10 year hold period. Taurus Euro RetailFunds I & II were focused on value creation through the aggregation and consolidationof long term leases of selected credit tenants to create institutional quality portfolios.�e strategies are supported by the execution of an asset management plan intended tomaximize risk-adjusted returns.

�e two Newbury Street Aggregation Programs, both joint ventures with institutionalpartners, were created to provide its investors with the unique opportunity to takeadvantage of the fragmented nature of the ownership and inconsistent, o�en sub-par,management of the 200 individual buildings that make up Newbury Street’s eight-blockretail district. Taurus, in just three years, became the largest owner on the street,transforming the street’s disparate assets into an institutional grade investment product.
