Our Cayman Investment Funds team was pleased to act as Cayman Islands counsel to Catalyst Investment Partners in the successful closing of its third fund, at its hard cap of US$400m. Catalyst is one of the most significant owners and operators of industrial outdoor storage (IOS) assets, applying a specialised market focus and deep sector expertise to target often overlooked properties in densely populated urban markets where supply constraints and high barriers to entry create compelling investment opportunities.
Our team was led by Cayman Islands Investment Funds partner
Bicrom Das, working alongside senior counsel
Erin Panton and associate
Max Ankers. Cayman Islands regulatory advice was provided by partner
Colm Dawson and associate
Ollie Digby from our Regulatory and Risk Advisory Group.
Commenting on the deal, lead partner Bicrom Das said 'We were delighted to support Catalyst and the team at DLA Piper, who acted as U.S. counsel, in the successful raise of Catalyst's third fund. In what has been a tighter capital raising market in recent times their success, focusing on a highly specialised asset class, shows that limited partners are still drawn to a compelling investment narrative and team, and we look forward to continuing to our continued partnership going forward.'
