and consistency, and supplements existing disclosures relating to the Adviser’s practices and
related potential conflicts, including with respect to “Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies
and Risk of Loss.”
The Adviser provides non-discretionary investment advisory services, and reserves the
right to provide discretionary investment advisory services, to institutional clients (“Accounts”),
and provides discretionary investment advisory services to investment funds privately offered to
qualified investors with respect to real estate and real estate-related investments (each a “Fund”,
and together with the Accounts, or other vehicles managed or advised by the Adviser or any of
their respective affiliates, including for the avoidance of doubt, the Adviser’s relying advisers and
their respective affiliates, “Clients”).
References to the Adviser herein includes GLP Capital Partners U.S. and its relying
adviser, GCP Storage Advisors LP (“GSA”), and their respective affiliates, which are all operated
as a single advisory business. GLP Capital Partners U.S. began operations in 2019 and GSA was
created in 2022. To the extent the Adviser provides services to one or more Funds, it establishes
general partner entities or equivalent governing entities that are affiliated with the Adviser (each,
a “General Partner,” and collectively, together with any future affiliated general partner entities,
the “General Partners”). Each General Partner is subject to the Advisers Act pursuant to the
Adviser’s registration in accordance with SEC guidance. References to the Adviser include the
General Partners, unless the context requires otherwise.
The Adviser is indirectly wholly owned by GLP Capital Partners Limited (“GLP Capital
Partners”), a parent company that emerged from a transaction in July 2022 (the “Transaction”)
between the Adviser and the funds management business of GLP Pte. Ltd. (collectively with its
affiliates, “GLP”, and the funds management business thereof, “GLP FM”) (see “Other Financial
Industry and Affiliations” below). The day-to-day operations of GLP Capital Partners U.S. are
managed by its principals,
Adam Berns, Daniel Ward, Steven Crowe, Michelle Li, Britton Leigh,
Tom Cherry, Jim Clemo and Erdinc Akil (the “Principals”). At the end of 2023, Alan Yang
stepped down as CEO of GLP Capital Partners and is no longer involved in the day-to-day
corporate affairs of the Adviser. However, Mr. Yang remains a senior adviser to GLP Capital
Partners and a member of its Board of Directors and also participates as a member of the
investment committee of GLP Capital Partners U.S. The Adviser has entered into an arms-length
agreement with GLP and certain of GLP’s subsidiaries whereby the Adviser agrees to provide
certain asset and investment management services, and certain sub-advisory services, to GLP and
its subsidiaries.
The Adviser’s advisory services to the Accounts are detailed in the applicable investment
management agreement or other governing agreements with such institutional clients
(“Management Agreements”). The Adviser’s advisory services to any Funds are detailed in the
applicable private placement memoranda, operating agreements, investor subscription agreements
or other offering documents of such Funds (each, an “Offering Document”, and together with the
Management Agreements, the “Governing Documents”) and are further described below under
“Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss.” The Funds or the General Partners
generally are expected to enter into side letters or other similar agreements (“Side Letters”) with
certain investors that have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering or supplementing the
terms (including economic or other terms) of, the Governing Documents with respect to such
investors. Even in such cases, investors in the Funds (generally referred to herein as “investors”
or “limited partners”) participate in the overall investment program for the applicable Fund and
such arrangements generally do not create an adviser-client relationship between the Adviser and
any investor.
As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser manages $643,963,918.00 in client assets on a non-
discretionary basis and $8,731,954,511.64 on a discretionary basis.
