Actis Africa Real Estate Fund 3
The Actis Africa Real Estate Fund 3 (ARE3) is a closed-end real estate development and asset management fund focused on high-quality assets in Sub-Saharan Africa. The fund's strategy targets the development of modern retail, office, industrial/logistics, and mixed-use properties in capital cities and regional hubs, capitalising on Africa’s accelerating urbanisation and growing middle class. ARE3 employs a "develop-to-core" strategy, typically focusing on development and construction equity, ensuring that assets meet international environmental design standards (e.g., LEED or EDGE certification). It aims to deliver strong commercial returns and significant developmental impact by providing essential, institutional-grade infrastructure in underserved markets. The fund closed with over $500m in commitments.
