What is a European Council?

 

A forum for industry leaders to meet, exchange ideas, share best practice and foster thought-leadership in their specific sector of the European real estate market. Consisting of a genuinely international membership, the councils provide a unique platform to learn from peers in the same sector who are operating in different markets, as well as help shape the future of pan-European real estate.

ULI Europe fellow on the 2013 budget

March 2013

 

Francesca MeddaIn response to the 2013 Budget, Francesca Medda, the Urban Land Institute’s Visiting Fellow on Infrastructure comments: “While we welcome the further £3 billion of infrastructure investment outlined in today’s budget, the major reform is the continued push towards a less centralised financial approach. Financial localism is a major shift in the mind-set of the UK Government and it is only through local initiatives that we can establish new ways to use infrastructure investment to help us exit from the economic crisis.”

ULI research highlights the impact of leverage on property fund performance

 

London (14 January 2013) New research published by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) highlights the significant negative impact which leverage has had on the performance of European property funds between 2001 and 2011. The findings, published in Have Property Funds Performed?, demonstrate that leverage is the key driver behind the overall underperformance of  investment vehicles over the last decade, in some cases reducing returns by up to 13.2% per annum for a 60% leveraged opportunity fund.
