6 terms

real estate investment trusts financial

"will hold approximately US$ 1.5 bn of listed Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”)."

Real estate investment trusts are companies that own and manage income-producing properties — such as apartments, offices, shopping centers or warehouses — and are required to distribute most of their rental income to shareholders as dividends. They let investors buy a piece of real estate without owning buildings directly, offering regular income, diversification and exposure to property values and rents; like a mutual fund for property that pays out cash from rents and is sensitive to market cycles and interest rates.

reits financial

"RBR Gestão is the current manager of 12 funds, of which 11 are listed REITs focused"

REITs, or real estate investment trusts, are companies that own and operate income-producing properties—like apartments, shopping centers, offices, warehouses, or cell towers—and share the rental profits with investors in the form of dividends. Think of a REIT as a mutual fund for real estate: it lets investors buy a small piece of many properties without managing buildings themselves, providing regular income, portfolio diversification, and an easier way to invest in property through public markets.

fee earning assets under management financial

"addition of approximately US$ 1.3 bn of Fee Earning Assets under Management (“FEAUM”)"

Fee earning assets under management are the portion of a financial firm's total assets that are actively managed on behalf of clients for which the firm charges management or performance fees. Think of it like the amount of customer money that is on a company’s payroll to earn revenue; larger or higher-fee balances typically mean more predictable income and help investors judge a manager’s growth potential and profitability. This metric matters because it links client money directly to the firm’s fee revenue and future earnings visibility.

compound annual growth rate financial

"representing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (“CAGR”) of over 65% since Patria’s IPO"

The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) shows how much an investment or value has grown, on average, each year over a specific period. It considers the effect of growth that compounds or builds upon itself, similar to how interest accumulates in a savings account. Investors use CAGR to compare different investments’ long-term performance and to understand how steady or consistent their growth has been over time.

cagr financial

"representing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (“CAGR”) of over 65% since Patria’s IPO"

Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) measures the average yearly growth of an investment, revenue, or other metric over a multi-year period as if it had grown at a steady rate each year. Think of it like the constant speed that would take you from the starting value to the ending value over the same time—useful because it smooths out ups and downs and lets investors compare different assets or performance periods on an even footing.

permanent capital vehicles financial

"permanent capital vehicles will account for approximately 22% of total Fee Earning"

A permanent capital vehicle is an investment entity that raises money without a fixed date to return it, allowing managers to hold assets for the long term instead of being forced to sell on a timetable. For investors, that means the vehicle can pursue longer-term opportunities, smooth out short-term market swings, and potentially generate steady income or capital growth—think of it as a pot of money meant to stay invested rather than a clocked loan.
