It invests in commercial property (offices, business hotels, shopping malls, logistics parks and warehouse areas). In order to be able to attract new investor groups, particularly institutional investors, while still retaining its profile for its private shareholders, who number about 22,000, CA Immo created a group structure in 2006: beneath CA Immo (quoted on the stock exchange since 1988), the company positioned CA Immo International, bundling the whole of the Group´s east and south-east European portfolio. Properties in Austria and Germany meanwhile remain in CA Immo. In addition, CA Immo New Europe was set up as a property fund for projects, and H1 Hotelfonds as a property fund in the hotel sector. CA Immo is traded on the Vienna Stock Exchange and currently has free float of approximately 90%.
