– special situations – acquisition of non-performing assets (NPA) from banks, operative companies and in an asset liquidation process (companies, lands, projects in developments, buildings),
– residential portfolio deals with developers – volume transactions on discounted conditions in development stage or ready to sale,
– investments in the holiday resorts and hotel sector – acquisition of land and real estate projects to develop or re-develop holiday resorts and hotels with potential partners,
– real estate mezzanine projects.
