Our heritage
Aviva Investors Real Estate Long Income (RELI) came into being in the late 1990s with the funding of Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) and continued to grow through the creation of the Lime Property Fund in 2004 and the REaLM (Returns enhancing and liability matching) fund range in 2011.
Today we also have a growing number of bespoke segregated mandates that we manage alongside the investment we carry out on behalf of the Aviva plc annuity business. During this time, we have funded over £4.5 billion of UK real estate, including more than £1.5 billion in the form of construction funding.2
