IntReal

What IntReal does

IntReal is a Hamburg-based financial services platform specializing in the launch, structuring, and administration of regulated real asset funds. Founded in 2008/2009 and operating as part of the HIH Group, the firm holds full licenses as a Service-KVG in Germany and as an AIFM in Luxembourg, enabling asset managers, project developers, and institutional investors to bring regulated real estate, infrastructure, and private debt funds to market without obtaining their own licenses. As of Q1 2026, IntReal administered €90.9 billion in assets across 413 funds on behalf of 75 fund partners, distributed across 18 countries, with 3,707 properties under administration. The firm has more than 500 employees across Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Luxembourg, including over 80 dedicated IT specialists.

The technology stack is anchored by SAP S/4HANA, which underpins the proprietary Fund Management Suite and Property Management Suite, with the Built-API Data Hub providing integration to client PropTech and enterprise systems. A Salesforce-based collaboration layer supports investor and asset management portals, while an AI solutions capability — developed since 2018 — combines generative AI and machine learning for process automation, document structuring, and knowledge retrieval. The infrastructure is ISO 27001-certified and ISAE 3402-audited, and IntReal Connect (launched 2024) is the branded digital investor portal.

The business model is B2B and contract-based, with revenue generated from fund structuring and administration fees, AIFM and Service-KVG licensing, IT and managed services, and consulting. Pricing is custom and AuA-linked rather than publicly disclosed, billed on an annual cadence. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales with key account management across Germany and Luxembourg, supported by thought-leadership content, industry-association participation (BVI, ALFI, BAI, INREV, LuxReal), and a 2025 strategic repositioning from a single-product service KVG to a multi-line real asset platform.
