Baltic Horizon Fund publishes its NAV for November 2020

Total net asset value of the Fund rose to EUR 144.6 million over the month. The NAV was affected positively by the operating performance of properties and cash flow hedge movement during the month.

The strong growth was driven by the acquisitions of Galerija Centrs and North Star, which had a positive effect on the Group’s net rental income growth in 2020 as compared to 2019, albeit rental income growth in 2020 slowed down due to relief measures granted to tenants during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The distribution of EUR 3.1 million to investors in November 2020 contributed to the decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the month.
