History
BIF Nyrt. was founded in 1994, making it one of the early players in the post-socialist real estate market in Budapest. A major milestone was its listing on the Budapest Stock Exchange in 1998, which allowed the company to generate capital for growth. Over the following two decades, BIF established itself as a local real estate developer and built an extensive portfolio of strategically located buildings, including office and hotel complexes, many of which have historical significance. Another important development was the admission of BIF shares to the Premium category of the Budapest Stock Exchange in October 2018, as well as the attainment of regulated real estate investment company (REIT) status at the end of 2018. The company has been a dominant operator in the property market of the Hungarian capital city for 27 years, a period during which Budapest underwent spectacular development. BIF states that its goal is to keep on breathing together with Budapest, enriching the city by developing iconic, trendsetting properties. BIF Plc. describes itself as a dynamic company full of plans and ideas, and at the same time a reliable and stable public company proud of its history. It emphasizes that all customers, business partners and suppliers should feel safe with it, because its core values are predictability, flexibility and loyalty. Tenant satisfaction is presented as the most important goal for its employees, and the unique locations of its properties and developments are described as a point on which the company never compromises. In addition to its commercial activities, BIF Nyrt. has engaged in corporate social responsibility. In 2020 it sponsored the children's camp of Kastélyosdombó, a camp organized for disadvantaged children held by The Hungarian Interchurch Aid. In 2021, thanks to the support of BIF Nyrt., The Hungarian Interchurch Aid organized one of its regular summer camps in Kastélydombó as part of the Catch Up Programme with the participation of disadvantaged children. With the support of The Hungarian Interchurch Aid, the company also took part in the building and handover of the Sure Start Children's Home in Boldogkőújfalu, which provides early training for children in deep poverty and social and employment support for their parents. BIF states that it feels it has a corporate social responsibility, which is why it considers it important that, apart from serving its business partners and tenants, it provides support to those in need.
