The objective of the Gemi First Mortgage Fund is to provide monthly income distributions through a selection of investments in short-to-medium term registered first mortgage loans whilst providing additional capital protection measures to Investors.

The Gemi First Mortgage Fund offers investors access to Gemi’s investment strategy and expertise with a number of key benefits:
The Fund has been rated as “Recommended” by independent property funds specialist, Core Property. The first loss capital of $5m invested as Manager Units by the principals of Gemi is regarded by Core Property Research as a unique feature of the Fund:
“A unique feature of the Fund is that the Manager provides a form of capital mitigation and distribution support to meet the Target Returns. Entities associated with the principals of Gemi have invested $5M in Manager Units which provide a first loss position on any capital losses in the Fund, before Ordinary Unitholders are impacted. Additionally, the Manager Units also provide partial support for the Target Returns each month.”
“Core Property considers the Manager Units to provide a strong alignment of interests as it incentivises the Manager to maintain a high level of returns but also puts the Manager at the forefront for any capital losses.”
