The new name is the culmination of the company joining forces with Sagard in 2021
DENVER– October 16, 2023– EverWest Real Estate Investors announces that the firm has rebranded as Sagard Real Estate following a strategic partnership that began in 2021 with the multi-strategy alternative asset management firm. The full-service private real estate investment manager and operator will adopt the Sagard brand name effective today. The firm’s parent company, Sagard, is a multi-strategy alternative asset management firm with $15 billion in AUM, active in venture capital, private equity, private credit, royalties and real estate. Power Corporation of Canada (TSX:POW), Sagard’s leading shareholder, is an international management and holding company that focuses on financial services in North America, Europe and Asia, with $2.7 trillion in assets under advisement.
Sagard Real Estate’s focus on driving value for institutional and high-net-worth investors through differentiated investment strategies remains unchanged. The successful strategies that have grown the firm from $2 billion to $5.2 billion in AUM over the last five years will continue through the rebrand with an emphasis on their industrial expertise focusing on high barrier-to-entry, top sub-markets with long-term tenant demand, multifamily investing in infill locations in undersupplied neighborhoods, and alternative property sectors for diversification and yield enhancement.
“Assuming the Sagard Real Estate name is the logical next step in our partnership with Sagard. We will continue to focus on investment performance as our top priority, building on our proven investment strategies and our success to date,” stated Rick Stone, Chief Executive Officer of Sagard Real Estate.
Sagard Real Estate’s leadership team, personnel and operations remain unchanged. The firm will continue to be led by Rick Stone and an experienced senior team who have invested in real estate together for many years.
