We caught up with Brady Welch, Chief Executive Officer of Slate Office REIT and Co-founding Partner of Slate Asset Management, a global alternative investment platform headquartered in Toronto.
Slate Office REIT owns and operates a diversified portfolio of strategic and well-located real estate assets in North America and Europe. The portfolio extends to 7.5 million sq ft (0.7 million sq m) and is split between North America (87 per cent) and Ireland (13 per cent). The portfolio is underpinned by government and high-quality credit tenants in emerging industries that are driving strong demand. Slate aims to buy quality assets at a discount to replacement cost with below market rents, and to use its exceptional hands-on operators to actively manage the assets and create value for unitholders.
