“Our ambition is to convert our extensive knowledge of the French, German and European real estate market into innovative investment products and quality advice for our institutional and private investors.”

							
SUPPORTING AND ADVISINGOur history
Founded in 1998 by Stéphane Amine and currently led by three Managing Partners – Stéphane Amine, Khalil Hankach, and Rodolphe Manasterski – Inovalis is dedicated to connecting foreign investors and their capital to the European real estate markets. Since its inception, Inovalis has focused on creating medium-term, tailor-made investment vehicles. This expertise has resulted in the development of an efficient and high-quality integrated management system, ensuring comprehensive control over commitments and flows.
Inovalis quickly distinguished itself by venturing into new markets. In 2001, it established its first fund, “Sharia,” and initiated its real estate management operations in Germany in 2005. In 2013, Inovalis launched the first REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) listed on the Canadian stock exchange, focusing on European investments. The company further expanded its reach with the acquisitions of the Adyal Group in 2013 and Gemofis in 2015.
In 2014, Inovalis diversified its client base by entering the retail market through the reverse acquisition of Avenir Finance. This move, along with its activities in Germany, management of development projects, and the amalgamation of Adyal and Gemofis with Avenir Finance, led to the formation of a unified entity named Advenis in 2015. These synergies coincided with the launch of Eurovalys, a corporate real estate investment trust primarily dedicated to office property investments in Germany, which achieved a capitalization of €1 billion in January 2022.
In 2010, Inovalis was granted approval as a portfolio management company, with this status renewed under the AIFM (Alternative Investment Fund Managers) directive in 2014.
