Nov 11 (Reuters) - Real estate private equity firm Tishman Speyer Properties LP is likely to announce later on Wednesday that one of its investment funds has bought a Paris office building for about $95 million, the Wall Street Journal said on its website.

Tishman has bought the building, which houses the corporate headquarters for various units of French insurer and asset manager AXA SA (AXAF.PA), from SCI Vendome in a sale-and-leaseback arrangement, the paper said.

Tishman could not be immediately reached for comment. (Reporting by Supantha Mukherjee in Bangalore; Editing by Greg Mahlich)
