SCPI: still exceptional inflows in 2021

Despite the still unstable health and economic environment in 2021, real estate funds recorded exceptional inflows.

The French have invested 10.7 billion euros. SCPIs (Sociétés Civiles de Placement Immobilier) alone received 70% of this amount, which they are increasingly directing towards assets that meet SRI criteria.

SCPI: solid inflows despite the economic situation

The year 2021 remained dominated by the Covid-19 outbreak. Nevertheless, the SCPI have continued to collect strongly over the past year. Indeed, these real estate investment vehicles totaled €7.4 billion in net inflows in 2021, a 22% jump from 2020. Collection even accelerated at the end of the year, with a total of €2.2 billion in the last quarter alone.

SCPI: an investment with risks

Investing in SCPI units presents risks, including the risk of capital loss. The investment is considered to be illiquid and should be considered from a long-term perspective and for asset diversification. The management company does not guarantee the resale of units. The potential income of the fund and the value of the units are not guaranteed. They may go up or down depending on the fund's performance, real estate market trends and economic conditions. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.
