BrickVest rebrands as BV Markets

Global property investment platform BrickVest has rebranded under the name BV Markets (BrickVest Markets) and has launched a new logo and website.

Its platforms and services will be grouped under the new name and its marketplace services categorised as ‘invest’, ‘lend’ and ‘raise capital’.

BV Markets said that the new website has standardised data so is transparent and makes it easier for investors to compare data.

The platform told investors in an email that it has “ambitious plans for the future”. This follows recent activity from the platform since coming out of administration.

In November last year four BrickVest subsidiaries, BrickVest Ltd, BrickVest Technology Ltd, BrickVest Services Ltd and BrickVest Talents Ltd, entered into administration, however the BrickVest website remained live and investors were still able to register on the platform.

At the time, a BrickVest employee told Peer2Peer Finance News that the regulated holding company was still operational and generating revenues but certain subsidiaries were closed.

Then in February 2020 German property investment manager Patrizia bought BrickVest out of administration.

BrickVest was given access to Patrizia’s global network including more than 350 institutional investors and industry partners and more than 200 banks and financial institutions.

More recently, in June, BrickVest launched its first commercial real estate bond investment and said the facility will help fund the acquisition of a prestigious historical building in Luxembourg town centre, tenanted by a government ministry.
