CapitaLand Investment Limited (CLI) has established a new lodging private fund with a target equity size of $800m.

The fund, CapitaLand Ascott Residence Asia Fund II (CLARA II), will invest in serviced residences and coliving properties in gateway cities in key developed Asia Pacific markets.

CLARA II is CLI’s second private fund that focuses on the serviced residence and coliving assets and a follow-on fund to the $800m Ascott Serviced Residence Global Fund (ASRGF).

CLI will hold a 20% sponsor stake in CLARA II. Third-party institutional investors will hold the remaining 80% stake in the fund.

In a bourse filing, CLI said CLARA II had secured its first close with equity commitment by global institutional investors from Europe and Asia.

The fund will also acquire a 50% stake in the 308-unit lyf Bugis Singapore and a 100% stake in the 200-unit lyf Shibuya Tokyo in Japan from Ascott.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
