Moorfield Group

What is Moorfield Group?

Moorfield Group is a venture capital fund with headquarters at 10 Grosvenor Street, Mayfair, London. Established in 1983, Moorfield specializes in real estate investments, functioning as an investment, asset, and operational manager on behalf of global institutions since 1996.

Their investment strategy is opportunistic, primarily targeting distressed real estate and related assets within the United Kingdom, with a focus on enhancing value and selecting thematic growth sectors. They boast over 28 years of experience in the industry and utilize in-depth macro and micro-analysis of economic and societal trends to drive their investment decisions.

As early movers and innovators, they focus on growth areas in real estate and have helped establish Private Equity Real Estate as an institutional asset class in the UK. Moorfield manages a diverse portfolio, incorporating both alternative and traditional real estate sectors such as retail, office, and industrial.

Their approach is research-focused, aiming to identify and invest in areas where there is a need-driven demand and an undersupply of fit-for-purpose real estate. By providing what occupiers want, Moorfield aims to achieve high occupancy rates, low vacancy costs, and above-trend rental growth.

This strategy aligns with their investors' interests, who are eager to support above-trend capital growth through yield compression. Moorfield's expertise includes debt and equity investments, and they specialize in early-stage, expansion, management buyouts/leveraged buyouts (MBO/LBO), and 'going private' transactions, marking their versatility in financial maneuvering and strategic business decisions.
