CIJ Awards Slovakia 2022 - Best Asset Management Company

On yesterday's gala evening in Bratislava we won the Best Asset Management Company in Slovakia category at the renowned CIJ Awards!

We were delighted to receive the award, as we see it as a reflection of the hard and continuous work of the entire team, which is the core of the ARETE Group. Our third fund is once again the most profitable real estate fund on the Czech-Slovak capital market. The Slovak market also plays an important role in delivering our excellent results, as we have made significant purchases, especially in the last period, to expand the fund's portfolio. In doing so, we support, among other things, the development of the Slovak economy and contribute to the long-term and sustainable development of the region. We see Slovakia as an attractive destination for investing and together with our existing and future tenants we will continue to strengthen our position in the Slovak market.

In a strongly competitive market, the committee appreciated, among other things, our investment strategy, our active approach to portfolio management, the unique competence of our team in purchasing and developing industrial parks, and, last but not least, the repeatedly confirmed appreciation and above-average returns paid to our investors. This is the only way we are able to beat inflation even when it reaches sustained high levels. Success and awards are also a commitment to us. We are doing our utmost to repeat our investment success in the years to come. At the same time, we are confident that ARETE's investors and partners will continue to stand firmly by our side.

Thank you all very much for your support and CIJ EUROPE for the excellent organization. We appreciate the award immensely.
