The real estate sector in SUN Group's two main regions, Russia/FSU and India, offers enormous opportunity to the well-placed investor and developer. SUN Group has created a dynamic strategy, which includes both principal and private equity structures, to leverage the rapidly growing real estate sector in these markets.

As in other sectors, SUN Group leverages its distinctive access to global capital and local investment opportunities, creating a substantial foundation which will then focus on long-term value creation by applying local expertise and management to ensure operating success. SUN Group's track record of creating value in these challenging markets across industries provides the assurance that partners and investors seek in these markets.

In creating private equity real estate platforms in its key markets, SUN Group has partnered with strong global players who bring deep experience in real estate investment and development, such as Apollo Real Estate Advisors, one of the most active global real estate investors and fund managers. The first fund created by this partnership was the $630 million SUN-Apollo India Real Estate Fund.

Moreover, in line with its tradition of entrepreneurial expertise, SUN Group is incorporating operating platforms in collaboration with leading global players to create sustainable and reputed enterprises across its focus markets.
