PATRIZIA, a leading partner for global real assets, today released the real estate trends from its 3rd annual Client Survey, which is based on the views of over 120 respondents from its international institutional investor base. The results show a clear trend towards generating value through active asset management, with a particular focus on decarbonisation initiatives and ESG data collection, as well as a shift in focus to value-add strategies over the next five years.

Philipp Schaper, CEO European Real Estate at PATRIZIA, said: “Our survey clearly shows the impact that rising interest rates and economic uncertainty are having on investor sentiment. However, more importantly it also underlines our conviction for driving the long-term value of real estate through an active asset management strategy supported by a data-led approach. Despite the short-term volatility, we anticipate the current market conditions, with a widening dual funding gap of rising decarbonisation and debt costs, to offer exciting investment opportunities. Investment managers with a rock-solid balance sheet and exceptional asset management and development capabilities like PATRIZIA are in a strong position to create most value.
