One of the focal points of Swiss Life KVG is the launch of real estate investment funds for private and institutional investors. Since the company's launch in November 2016, four real estate investment funds and investment companies have been initiated. In addition to three special funds, this also includes the "Swiss Life Living + Working" real estate mutual fund. Its sales launch is planned for 2017.
