Madrid, November 2, 2022 – J.P. Morgan Asset Management and AMCHOR Investment Strategies have announced the closing of the second fund resulting from their strategic alliance for the development, management and distribution of real asset programs in Spain and Portugal. In just four months, the MCH Global Real Asset Strategies II fund, which has been marketed mainly to institutional clients and through private banks, has raised around 200 million euros. In total, the program has raised more than 600 million euros.
The fund will invest with a high diversification by country, sector and asset type in infrastructure, real estate and transportation globally.
With the launch of the first MCH Global Real Asset Strategies fund in February 2021, AMCHOR Investment Strategies (AMCHOR IS) and J.P. Morgan AM initiated the collaboration to offer their investors investment opportunities aimed at providing stable and predictable income in real assets. This second fund, MCH Global Real Asset Strategies II, was launched just one year after the first, and is a continuation of this program and the partnership with J.P. Morgan AM.
Through the agreement reached by both entities in 2020, J.P. Morgan Asset Management has introduced for the second time in Spain its range of alternative investment solutions, until now only accessible to large institutional investors. Furthermore, thanks to this alliance with AMCHOR Investment Strategies (AMCHOR IS), both institutional and private banking investors can access the international asset manager’s real asset strategies specifically adapted to the Spanish market, in an efficient and transparent manner.
For Javier Dorado, Managing Director of J.P.
