Overview

ING Medical Properties Trust (the Trust) is an NZSX-listed investment fund that invests in high-quality, health and medical-related properties. For investment security the fund is structured as a unit trust. The Trust's intention is to maximise returns to unitholders, with relatively low volatility.

The Trust was established to provide investors with an opportunity to invest in quality properties exclusively in the medical and health sector in New Zealand and Australia. The Trust does not operate healthcare facilities itself. Rather, its function is to identify, purchase and manage quality healthcare properties and lease them to experienced operators. In some cases, the Trust will undertake the design and construction of a healthcare-related property for particular health service providers. These properties may include surgical and medical facilities, primary healthcare facilities and health support facilities.

ING Medical Properties Trust changed its name from Calan Healthcare Properties Trust on 23 August 2007.

The Trust is managed by ING Medical Properties Limited, which is, in turn, owned by ING (NZ) Limited, one of New Zealand's largest investment managers and a leading life insurer. When you do business with ING (NZ) Limited, you are dealing with a respected company whose stability and track record offer you the assurance that we have the expertise and skills to meet your needs.
