Solid Foundations
 | F&C REIT has an outstanding heritage. The business was formed in September 2008 by combining the strength and experience of leading investment manager and fund specialist F&C with the entrepreneurial expertise and proven track record of property asset manager, REIT. F&C’s origins date back to 1868 when the first ever publicly listed investment fund Foreign & Colonial Investment Trust was launched. Since then, F&C has continued to attract investors who require expertise, high quality service and a competitive range of performance-focused investments.
