White papersAsia Pacific Market Perspective Q1 2020
Operating conditions and the investment outlook in the Asia Pacific region shifted dramatically over the first quarter. The market had severe restrictions imposed on it to bring the public health crisis of COVID-19 under control, and governments and central banks announced very large support packages to offset the costs of these restrictions.

The U.S. labor market and household formation had been very strong, driving robust demand for commercial space.
