Real Estate

For investors and asset owners anywhere in the world, a carefully considered balance between global and local Real Estate investments is one of the most important asset allocation decisions.

Owning real estate in your domestic market will have its benefits. Familiarity with the differences between regions and districts as well as economic conditions and the features of the local market will make it easier to make decisions involving a certain degree of investment risk.

On the other hand, economic cycles and market risks can have a stronger impact on returns in one particular geography compared to another. Climate change, demographics, political and geopolitical risks have different effects on each continent, region and country. Prudent investment policy is often expected to include a clear element of diversification. This can be implemented on a global level as well as locally. A variety of geographies and sectors within a Real Estate portfolio can reduce the overall investment risk.
