KBC Real Estate is a leading market player in converting real estate assets, or even entire real estate portfolios, into real estate certificates or real estate sicafis (“vastgoedbevak”).

Real estate certificates are debt claims, which may or may not be listed on an exchange, that offer a variable rate of interest. They entitle holders to beneficial ownership of real estate: i.e. the net income derived from the buildings and any proceeds when they are sold. Part of the annual coupon qualifies as redemption of principal, so it is exempt from withholding tax. The other part, the interest component, is subject to 30% withholding tax. Property risk exposure is generally concentrated on a single building.
