Mayfair Capital Investment Management, the specialist UK real estate investment arm of Swiss Life Asset Managers, has rebranded as Swiss Life Asset Managers UK.

The rebranding follows the acquisition of Mayfair Capital by Swiss Life Asset Managers in November 2016.

Giles King, CEO of Swiss Life Asset Managers UK, commented: "The rebranding of Mayfair Capital to Swiss Life Asset Managers UK marks an exciting step forward for our company. It will help accelerate our business growth by presenting a strong and coherent brand to our existing clients and attracting new institutional investors across real estate assets, generating more opportunities, and thereby strengthening our UK and Pan-European real estate platform.

“Over the last six years, we have made several UK investments on behalf of Swiss Life Asset Managers’ pan-European strategies. We have provided asset management services to these funds, and we expect this part of our business to continue to grow over time. There are several Swiss Life Asset Managers’ pan-European funds that are actively looking to invest in the UK with compelling opportunities across a variety of sectors. We are confident this move will help us to grow and further our reputation for excellence in the management of real estate."
