LONDON-Specialist industrial investor Ashtenne Holdings is to launch a £360 million ($507 million) limited partnership backed by Morley Fund Management.

The fund has been developed to allow institutions to gain exposure to the high yielding UK industrial property, an area where many funds are underweight because of the requirement for active management. To kickstart the venture, Ashtenne will contribute £60 ($85 million) million in return for a 33% stake, and Morley £120 ($170 million) million in return for a 67% partnership share.

The fund will then buy £249 million ($350 million) of industrial properties from Ashtenne; £16 million ($22.5 million) of industrials from Morley and another £16 million ($22.5 million) worth are being bought in the market.
