White papersReal Estate House View: Switzerland - First half-year 2024
The construction industry will have breathed a sigh of relief. The construction cost index recently rose by just 1.4% year-on-year. The sharp temporary increase thus remains an anomaly triggered by the shortage of supply. Prices for building materials, which are largely imported, were the main driver prior to the rise in interest rates, as the Drewry World Container Index shows. However, no price reductions are expected in 2024. The higher interest on borrowing is set to drive prices until mid-2024 at the latest. On top of this, additional planning requirements could potentially account for up to 2 percentage points of construction inflation.

White papersIPM – Edition May 2024: Our semi-annual insights into private markets
The path that real asset owners have trodden over the last two years has been challenging. Investment volumes have hit record lows in some markets, at least in terms of inflation-adjusted figures. The bifurcation between markets’ performance has also been vast: according to MSCI1, US offices have seen their capital values drop by more than 30% from year-end 2021, while US industrial values are up nearly 5% over the same time period. And while not as extreme, similar stories can be said for many other private markets.
