November 03, 2025

AustralianSuper has launched a new UK Living platform with an initial $1.1 billion (£500m) investment.

- Eliza Bavin

The new platform will target investments in the UK living sector, looking to deploy funds at scale over the next 12 months.

The $382 billion super fund said the platform aims to become one of the top five operators of rental homes in the UK within five years.

The platform will create institutional grade living accommodation encompassing student, co-living and residential homes. It seeks to respond to demand for flexible, mixed living communities, paired with greater connectivity between higher education, innovation, and industry.

The platform's first investment is a student housing development in Bristol, with contractors on site and a target completion in 2027.
