Japan Metropolitan Fund Investment

8953

Japan Metropolitan Fund Investment Corporation (“JMF”) was established under the Law Concerning Investment Trusts and Investment Corporations of Japan (Law No. 198 of 1951; as amended) on September 14, 2001. It was the first investment corporation in Japan to specifically target retail real estate assets. It was listed on the Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (securities code: 8953) on March 12, 2002. After that, JMF effected an absorption-type merger (the “Merger”) effective on March 1, 2021 with JMF as the surviving corporation and MCUBS MidCity Investment Corporation (“MMI”) as the dissolving corporation and changed the corporation name from Japan Retail Fund Investment Corporation to Japan Metropolitan Fund Investment Corporation. JMF seeks to enhance its total return (Distribution Per Unit and Net Asset Value) by expanding its growth cycle driven by “internal growth” and “return of gains on sales,” and acquired two properties and disposed of five properties (including partial dispositions) during the fiscal period ended August 31, 2025. As a result, the total assets managed by JMF at the end of the 47th fiscal period (fiscal period ended on August 31, 2025) amounted to 1,262.0 billion yen (the total acquisition price for 145 properties). The total acquisition price including investment securities such as the silent partnership interests and the investment units of domestic real estate investment corporation is 1,282.4 billion yen.
