Summary:
- Bank of Ireland has refinanced its partnership with GSA, bringing its total funding in Ireland’s student accommodation sector to over €700 million, supporting the delivery of more than 7,000 beds nationwide and easing pressure on the wider residential market.
- GSA, active in Ireland since 2015 with Bank of Ireland financing its first 400-bed development, now manages around 4,000 student beds across Dublin and Cork and operates internationally across 11 countries as an investor, developer, and asset manager of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA).
- The refinancing underscores Bank of Ireland’s decade-long commitment to the sector, with both parties highlighting plans to continue expanding high-quality student housing, including prime locations like Kavanagh Court in Dublin city centre, to support Ireland’s third-level education system and social infrastructure.
