TECHNOLOGY
REAL ESTATE ASSET MANAGEMENT
RIM London diligently curates a distinctive strategy to meet each client’s aspirations, on a site by site basis. We understand that every client has a different attitude to risk and that no two sites are ever the same. Therefore, we work to provide a range of viable options, and build robust financial models, to help in the decision making process. The core objective is to always maximise property value and investment returns, whilst minimising liability and exposure.
EDUCATIONAL INVESTMENTS
RIM London works with likeminded partners, on a joint venture basis, in a range of education focussed investments. As a part of Regent Group, RIM London has unique expertise in this niche, yet growing, sector. Our work includes, but is not limited to, investing in ed-tech, educational real estate by way of sale and leaseback arrangements, creating new educational businesses with third parties, and assisting foreign investors, on all necessary aspects, as they look to enter the UK education sector.
SOCIAL IMPACT INVESTMENTS
At RIM London we do not believe that making a big difference, in the lives of those who need it the most, should be left to charities and charitable donations. Nor do we accept that making a positive impact and healthy returns should be seen as a zero-sum game on the balance sheet. Therefore, we are leading in a new range of investments that, from the outset, look to achieve two key targets. First, to make a considerable, positive, impact on society. Second, to make investors healthy returns.
