The investment by a Gulf state-owned fund subsidiary marks the ninth round of the London-based Cheyne Real Estate Credit Holdings programme, called the Capital Solutions strategy, the hedge fund said. No details on the size of the investment were given. “We have invested with Cheyne for a number of years,” said Mohammed Al Qubaisi, executive director of ADIA’s real estate department.

Last August, an ADIA-owned unit said it would invest A$700 million ($449 million) into one of its Australian commercial real estate private credit fund.
