Canada Pension Board Forms Partnerships to Buy Logestic Properties in Singapore and Indonesia

Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) announced it has entered into two agreements to invest alongside Ivanhoé Cambridge with real estate logistics specialist LOGOS in the LOGOS Singapore Logistics Venture (LSLV) and LOGOS Indonesia Logistics Venture (LILV), which will focus on developing and acquiring logistics facilities in Singapore and Indonesia, respectively.

CPPIB and Ivanhoé Cambridge will be equal partners in both joint ventures, with LOGOS, as the operating partner, holding the remaining stake in the ventures.

In Singapore, CPPIB will initially commit SGD200million for an approximate 48% stake in the LSLV, which will be seeded by two fully-leased existing multi-storey logistics warehouse facilities as well as one development opportunity. All the seed assets are very well located in established industrial submarkets of Singapore.

Additionally, CPPIB will initially commit USD100 million in equity for an approximate 48% stake in LILV, which has an identified strong pipeline of development opportunities in Greater Jakarta, Indonesia. LILV will develop assets to meet the increasing demand for modern logistics facilities on the back of Indonesia’s compelling macroeconomic fundamentals, rapid e-commerce growth and a growing logistics sector.
