Cabot Properties has announced the final closing of Value Fund VII with $1.57 billion of equity commitments. Coming in above its initial target of $1.5 billion, this fund is Cabot's largest to date.

The fund is focused on acquiring, developing and redeveloping infill industrial assets in the US, Europe and Asia Pacific. The fund will target investments mainly in multi-tenant buildings between 50,000 and 250,000 square feet, with the majority of capital being deployed in the US. The fund, including leverage, is expected to capitalize approximately $3.5 billion in investments.

Investors in the fund are a mix of global institutions including endowments, foundations, public and corporate pensions, asset managers, and family offices, among others. Almost 90% of the commitments came from existing investors, according to Franz Colloredo-Mansfeld, Chairman and CEO of Cabot Properties.
