What we do
Private capital
We have £2bn of investment equity to invest in large, corporate deals that suit our long-term private capital and our ability to drive value from complex real estate portfolios.

- Property partnership for large merger and acquisition deals
- Sale and leaseback transactions

In 1997 Trillium was formed to purchase 27m sq ft of the DWP portfolio. In 2001 we deployed our private capital, in joint venture with Trillium, to acquire BT’s real estate portfolio for £2.4bn, forming Telereal.
In joint venture with M&G in 2007, we acquired £800m of offices and branches from the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) on a 30-year sale and leaseback agreement.
During the global financial crisis in 2009, Telereal purchased Trillium from LandSec for £750m, to form Telereal Trillium.
In 2015, to further enhance our strategic land objectives, we acquired Lands Improvement from Blackrock.
In a joint venture with Blackstone Property Partners in 2019, we transacted on Network Rail’s commercial estate for £1.46bn and formed The Arch Company.
