APL Group
APL Group is a privately held firm that invests in real estate, renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and private equity transactions. The firm actively pursues value-add opportunities, including corporate acquisitions, development, redevelopment, portfolio acquisitions and other complex transactions. By leveraging our capabilities and expertise, we are able to target investments across multiple strategic initiatives, geographies, and asset classes. There is no standard APL transaction. Our success has been defined by our willingness to pursue unorthodox, complex or even contrarian opportunities. With a blend of knowledge, creativity, patience, and decisiveness, we are uniquely positioned to quickly adapt to market changes and manage risk. APL is insulated from external pressures as to when and how to deploy financial resources as we are not a fund; rather, we deploy capital in the time, place, and manner that optimizes our investment thesis and return. Since its founding in 1994, the firm has completed over $21 billion in transactions.
