Jason Meklinsky, Head of Business Development, Americas at Apex Group comments: “We are excited to support RailField in the launch of their first institutional funds. There’s strong investment appetite among managers targeting alternative and specialty real estate, with many opportunities for growth that can be overwhelmed by administrative needs as a fund is getting off the ground. The combination of institutional-type investment strategies, innovative asset development and attractive real estate market fundamentals – especially compared to traditional investment sectors – means that these opportunities will continue. Our single-source solution, delivered by our experienced team, will ease the pressures surrounding any new fund launch and will allow RailField to continue their focus on growth.”  
 
Todd R. Watkins, Partner, Chief Operating Officer & General Counsel at RailField Partners added: “The need for efficiency and transparency is critical in our work, particularly when it comes to administrative requirements and investor relations. Apex’s proven track record in supporting real estate fund launches, combined with their depth of professional expertise in private capital and the solutions they’ve created to support managers’ needs, made them the clear fit for us. We look forward to the support and guidance that their platform and attentive team will provide.”
