Joe Lewis buys into fund managed by Kenmore empire

Joe Lewis, the billionaire who used to own 25% of Glasgow Rangers Football Club, has bought a stake in a European property fund managed by part of the Kenmore property empire in a sign that bargain hunters see opportunities in the property market.

The Kenmore European Industrial Fund said a company owned by a Lewis family trust had bought 10.5 million shares. This gave it control of 7.5% of the fund, which owns properties across Europe.
