STRATEGY
“We create added value by building, operating and continuously developing future-proof, diverse living spaces.”
The Zug Estates Group invests in properties with the aim of retaining them for the long term as well as continuously developing them. The bulk of the real estate portfolio is located at two sites in Zug (City Centre site/Metalli) and Risch Rotkreuz (Suurstoffi) and is broadly diversified by type of use. Through sustainable and versatile design concepts, as well as active management and careful transformation of our living spaces, we create added value for our stakeholders and future generations.
Our properties and sites can be found at central, well-connected locations with long-term development potential. We systematically exploit synergies arising from geographical concentration as well as the variety of ways in which these living spaces can be used. We seek to build a diverse, broadly diversified portfolio with a balanced relationship between residential, office, retail, hotel and service uses (including education and culture).
Our activities are geared to long-term commercial success and founded on a sound equity and financing structure, sustainable profitability and a forward-looking dividend strategy. We harness innovation and the opportunities afforded by digitalisation to drive the ongoing development of our properties and services as well as the optimisation of our operations.
ACQUISITIONS
By exploiting growth potential in our existing portfolio as well as targeted acquisitions, we generate added value for our shareholders. We focus on centrally located sites that are easily accessible by both public and private transport. All sites must have the potential for diverse, future-proof use. The spotlight is on sites and properties in the Canton of Zug as well as in neighbouring cantons (primarily Zurich and Lucerne). This geographical concentration enables us to systematically utilise our knowledge of the regional market and the synergies that arise.
With regard to our development and transformation projects, we are in close contact with the authorities of the municipalities concerned and maintain a dialogue with the public.
