Built environment

Investing for the long term, building for the future

At PIC, we invest to create buildings that last – that strengthen communities, sustain local economies and stand the test of time.

For over a decade, we’ve been a significant long-term investor in the UK’s built environment, from social housing and education to renewable energy and landmark regeneration projects such as One Eastside in Birmingham.

These investments deliver the long-term, secure cashflows we need to meet our commitments to policyholders, while helping cities, universities and housing providers achieve theirs. In short, they deliver social value as well as financial value.

Because we invest for decades, not years, our partners benefit from funding that is flexible, stable and tailored to their needs – including deferred drawdown and bespoke terms.

Our built environment portfolio

Our portfolio is designed to support sustainable growth across the UK – from social housing to affordable homes to major regeneration schemes and energy-efficient campuses. Each investment provides the reliable long-term cashflows we require, while creating genuine social and environmental value.

We invest in areas, such as:

apartements on the waterside Total UK direct investments

£13.8bn

apartment block mid construction Social housing

£2.8bn

student accomodation buildings Education

£2.4bn

(Amount invested to date is estimated based on available historic data.)
