LSM Management is pleased to announce the successful final closing of Axes Credit Partners’ latest credit fund, having raised EUR 140 million for exclusive investment in the hospitality sector of commercial real estate across Europe. The fund, which was fully subscribed, marks a significant milestone in the firm’s growing presence as a trusted placement agent for alternative investment strategies.

 

The Axes Credit Partners Hospitality Credit Fund is targeting an IRR (Internal Rate of Return) of 14-16% and an equity multiple of 2.5x-3x over the fund's projected investment horizon of 4 to 5 years. The fund is designed to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns, leveraging the potential for value creation within the recovering hospitality sector, particularly in high-demand European markets.

 

Axes Credit Partners, a leading investment firm specializing in credit and real estate investments, will utilize the newly raised capital to acquire and manage real estate-backed credit assets in the hospitality sector. With a focus on premium hotels, resorts, and other hospitality assets across key European markets, the fund aims to capitalize on opportunities arising from the post-pandemic recovery and the evolving dynamics of the European hospitality industry.

 

"We are thrilled to have supported Axes Credit Partners in raising EUR 140 million for this highly targeted fund," said LSM Management. "The hospitality sector in Europe is showing strong signs of recovery, and the fund’s strategy is well-positioned to tap into the growing demand for high-quality hospitality assets in top-tier tourist and business locations. The fund’s target returns of 14-16% IRR reflect the exciting potential for both capital appreciation and income generation within this asset class."
