RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, June 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vinci Partners Investments Ltd. (NASDAQ: VINP) (" Vinci Partners," "the Company," "we," "us," or "our"), the controlling company of a leading alternative investment platform in Brazil, announced today that Vinci Imóveis Urbanos FII (VIUR11), a listed REIT managed by Vinci Partners’ Real Estate segment, committed to its final acquisition from the proceeds of its initial public offering (“IPO”), closed in May 2021.

Leandro Bousquet, partner and Head of Real Estate for Vinci Partners, said, “We have been able to finalize the allocation of the IPO proceeds in less than a month, which showcases the great opportunity we see to deploy capital in this sector. VIUR’s portfolio is now composed of six urban commercial properties in three different regions of the country, diversified by tenants and business segments. We are constantly evaluating further opportunities and can come back to the market to acquire additional assets through a follow-on offering.”
