White papersAPAC Real Estate Outlook
The APAC region was the first to be affected by the COVID-19 outbreak at the start of 2020, highlighting the downside impact of the pandemic on economies, particularly tourism arrivals and manufacturing. With the outbreak having evolved into a global pandemic, a recession scenario appears likely for the five developed APAC economies this year. These markets, however, are expected to recover relatively quickly from 1H 2021 onwards (see Figure 1), benefitting from their relative preparedness in handling the pandemic and governments’ strong fiscal and monetary support. This should help bolster investment sentiment in the APAC region.

White papersAsia Pacific Market Perspective Q1 2020

The unknown part of this outlook is the effect any COVID-19 reoccurrence may have, and how disruptive that could be.

White papersMajor Shifts In Odce Sector Allocations Underway
Prior to the COVID-19 crisis, commercial real estate (CRE) demand and supply fundamentals were largely healthy in most markets and property sectors. The U.S. labor market and household formation had been very strong, driving robust demand for commercial space. Furthermore, relatively conservative underwriting and rising construction costs constrained new supply. In recent months, however, the global pandemic has led to a rapid downturn of the U.S economy, negatively impacting different industries and real estate dynamics.
