The deal underlines Simmons & Simmons' focus on supporting asset managers on complex cross-border investments in digital infrastructure, combining market-leading transactional capability with deep sector expertise across Europe. The cross-border Simmons & Simmons team advising L&G was led by UK Corporate Partner Raghav Ghai and French Corporate Partners Arnaud Félix and Isabelle Meyrier with support from Partners Ombline Ancelin (Antitrust and FDI, Paris), Waltter Kulvik (Digital Infrastructure, London) and Mary Serhal (Banking and Finance, Paris). Commenting on the transaction, Raghav Ghai said: "This investment is a strong example of how international capital can support the next phase of growth for critical digital infrastructure platforms in Europe. We are pleased to have brought together our cross-border team and digital infrastructure expertise to support L&G and LDIF on this milestone acquisition."

Luxury student accommodation sold for £43m in Southampton. A luxury student accommodation block in Southampton has been sold for £43 million. Stanley Studios, on Portswood Road, was sold for £43 million by Savills, on behalf of a Brookfield Asset Management private real estate fund, to Legal & General Student Living Ltd. The property, which first opened for the 2021/22 academic year, is operated by Prestige Student Living and offers 245 beds, including 177 studio apartments and 68 two-bedroom units. The block is among the city's highest quality purpose-built student accommodation offerings (PBSA), featuring a cinema, gym, study room, a library, a games room, a private dining room, and a private lounge. Alistair Kemp, director at Savills Operational Capital Markets, said: "Southern Daily Echo is very pleased to have completed the successful sale of this asset. "Southampton's PBSA development pipeline remains notably limited, contributing to a strong demand profile for high-quality, well-located assets in the city. "The transaction reflects the continued appetite for premium student housing and demonstrates that well-designed, well-located schemes continue to perform strongly in the current market." Recommended reading: Located just north of the city centre and a 13-minute walk from the University of Southampton, Southampton Solent University is also only 2 miles from the accommodation. Savills described the accommodation, which includes studio and two-bedroom flats fitted with kitchens and en-suite bathrooms, as one of the city's most conveniently located purpose built student accommodation. The building features an onsite laundry room, bike storage, comprehensive CCTV coverage throughout the site and an onsite maintenance team. All utility bills for the property are also included in the rent, and contents insurance is included. Neil Dovey, head of annuity transactions, real estate at Legal & General, said: "Southern Daily Echo is delighted to add this asset to its portfolio, bringing its investment in the sector to just under £400m over the past 2 years. "We will continue to target those locations with strong property fundamentals where the student population is expected to increase in line with the growth plans of the main Universities in the City."
