Buyout titan Blackstone says everyone’s a winner after an institutional investor tipped $US4 billion into its property fund. But there’s more to the transaction.

When buyout titan Blackstone said last month it was forced to put the gates up on BREIT, its gigantic $US68 billion property fund,Blackstone’s epic BREIT deal introduces a twist to the great private asset reset.But sceptics have warned investors underestimate the cost of owning hard-to-sell assets, while falsely assuming those investments are less volatile

What is clear is that UC, as an institutional investor, identified an opportunity where it could provide much-needed liquidity and make sure it did so on favourable terms.Ironically, BREIT was an open-ended structure aimed at giving individual investors access to private assets. But that also made it vulnerable to those same investors acting rationally by shifting their money into public assets, if they deemed it to be a better deal.
