Three core projects in Berlin and Munich

Back in August 2018, MünchenerHyp provided EUR 97.8 million for three core projects of Credit Suisse Asset Management, in which only qualified Swiss investors can invest. The financed package includes the “Kant-Center” shopping centre in Berlin, the “Laimer Würfel” in Munich and another office building in the capital.

„The Monument Building“, London

Credit Suisse Asset Management is also the partner of MünchenerHyp in financing the “Monument Building” in the British capital, which was completed in early 2018. The building constructed in 2016 got its monumental name from the 61-meter-high landmark directly in front of the main entrance, which commemorates the Great Fire of London in 1666 and has a viewing platform. As agent, MünchenerHyp financed 57% of the figure and syndicated almost half of the loan amount to LBBW.
