Fund overview

GSA CORAL STUDENT PORTFOLIO IS A UNIQUE OFFERING.

A GLOBAL AND D I V E R S I F I E DFUND PROVIDING ACCESS TO INSTITUTIONAL G R A D E P U R P O S E B U I L T S T U D E N T ACCOMMODATION (PBSA) INVESTMENTS.

Compelling asset class

An asset class with a clear and growing disparity between supply and demand.

Higher education is also counter cyclical, as more students seek to enrol during periods of economic slowdown, placing greater demand on the provision of suitable PBSA.

Global investments

The Fund blends core investments in mature markets (such as the UK) with market leading investments intounder-developed locations globally.

These are countries with mature real estate markets, but with a lack of sophisticated provision of PBSA and provides the Fund with irst mover advantage.

Structure

Our structure, which is widely used in other sectors but comparatively unique in student accommodation, is a signiicant part of our investment strategy.

It permits wide diversiication and quicker acquisition or disposal of investments when portfolio change or liquidity is desired.

Liquidity

It is this diversiication and lexibility that has stood the fund in such good stead since 2009 and which has allowed it to continue to provide strong performance and liquidity – a signiicant accomplishment in a turbulent investment climate. GSA Coral has an unrivalled 100% track record of meeting investor liquidity requirements since inception.

Management

GSA Coral and GSA Investment Management have over 25 years’ experience in developing and leading the student accommodation sector. They have an unrivalled track record as a trusted partner of higher education and capital in this sector.

Global student mobility has

risen by 6% p.a. over 15 years,

primarily from a growing

middle class in the Far East

(53%) and from a general

increase in domestic mobility.

Government sponsorship and support for higher education is also growing. University education is a leading driver of economic expansion and, almost without exception, global growth in higher education is underpinned by government policy.

This unprecedented growth in participation in higher education is forecast to continue around the globe.

...BUT STUDENT ACCOMMODATION IS STRUCTURALLY UNDERSUPPLIED

HUGE DEMAND FOR HIGHER EDUCATION GLOBALLY

Why do we specialise in student accommodation?

Long-term growth in global higher education enrolments

UN

ES

CO

Parents and students are driving demand for a better quality of accommodation. They want safe places with good amenities and a sense of community.

Universities increasingly rely on the private sector to supply accommodation.

Undersupply is rising through the growth in student numbers and the removal of old stock that no longer meets the expectations of parents and students.

WE ARE THE STUDENT ACCOMMODATION EXPERTS

There are not many companies that create their own sectors. And there are even fewer that continue to lead them a quarter of a century later. GSA is one of them. For 25 years, we have researched, inanced and operated student communities around the world. We have provided 60,000 beds in secure and vibrant communities across three continents. Since making our irst investment in purpose-built student accommodation in 1991, we have transformed our sector into an institutional-grade real estate asset class.

Our management team have created over $7.5bn of student accommodationin 44 cities and 8 countries.

We have worked with global investment banks such as Credit Suisse, Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and UBS. We have also worked with public shareholders, private investors, pension funds, insurers, sovereign wealth funds and the CMBS markets. We successfully underwrite opportunities by understanding the most granular aspects of our sector, ensuring that we deliver optimum risk-adjusted returns to investors.

WHERE WE LEAD, OTHERS FOLLOW

We have grown by always looking for new ways to improve the provision of student accommodation. Many of our initiatives are now standard sector practice.

WE DEVELOPED THE VALUATION METHODOLOGY which is now adopted by other operators. WE ISSUED THE FIRST COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE BACKED SECURITIES IN EUROPE in this sector.

We established the irst Nominations Agreements with universities to help underpin investment in the sector. In 2000, we created the irst FTSE-listed student accommodation vehicle in UNITE.

OUR APPROACH WORKS

From research to delivery, our integrated approach ensures we make the most of our partners’ investments. With oices in London, Dubai, Hong Kong, Beijing, Sydney, Tokyo and Dublin, we combine a global perspective with a deep understanding of local markets. We develop and nurture strong relationships with both academic and inancial institutions. That’s why we have successfully expanded our business model from the UK to over 14 international markets.

GSA Investment Management

In 2014 Coral Portfolio and the GSA Group formed a strategic partnership. Coral’s regulated fund platform, along with GSA’s global reach into PBSA markets, provided a strong synergy for investors to give pioneering access to market leading opportunities around the world.

Since then, the partnership has grown successfully and in 2016 Coral became an integrated part of GSA Investment Management. This has strengthened the fund’s ability to capitalise on investment opportunities. Some of these are within GSA managed vehicles, where GSA Coral has taken a privileged cornerstone position and sits alongside major institutional investors. It also ofers an additional depth of expertise and underwriting experience, as well as a greater reach into capital markets to grow the GSA Coral Fund.
