We believe Bridge’s strategic focus on residential, logistics and yield-oriented investments positions us well for continued success.”

Our focus on the value-add sector of target markets and forward integration into property management position Bridge to succeed. We had an active quarter, deploying more than $638.6 million and increasing fee-earning AUM to $14.7 billion, up 43% compared to a year ago. Additionally, strong investment performance year-to-date and another successful fundraising quarter for Bridge totaling $1.1 billion represent a solid beginning for 2022.”
