Prisma Sgr, a major Italian provider of investment and asset management services in the real estate sector, has signed a cooperation agreement with TJP Advisory & Management Services GmbH to advise Rinnovanda, a real estate fund active in the renewable energy sector.
Vienna, 01 February 2013. TJP Advisory & Management Services GmbH is supporting Prisma Sgr in identifying and selecting investment opportunities in solar power generation plants in Italy that have already been developed and are connected to the national energy grid. The fund, which is currently closing its first investments, focuses on plants that benefit from the feed-in tariff advertised in the so-called Conto Energia. The expected return of the fund is over 14%.
Under the signed agreement, TJP will be supported by BForms Management Company, with whom TJP has worked for several years in the role of qualified advisor to institutional investors in the real estate sector. TJP and BForms work together in London, Vienna, Belgrade, Linz, Turin, Milan, Rome, Naples and Catania, supporting their clients on an international level in the development, construction and management of strategic projects.
"We are very proud to have gained the interest and trust of such a renowned advisor as TJP," said Alberto Carpani, Managing Director of Prisma SGR. "With our Italian-Austrian cooperation, we aim to attract other investors, especially from Central Europe, to our fund."
"Many Austrian operators have already invested in the field of renewable energy in Italy through project companies (SPVs). With the Rinnovanda fund, it is our goal to bring interested parties closer to the topic of an indirect investment in a powerful fund. We strongly believe in the Italian market and we are convinced that this fund, which is constantly reviewed by the Italian National Bank, is an extremely interesting opportunity for investments in Italy," explains Thomas Regitschnig, partner at TJP.
