With 2020 firmly in the rear view mirror, it is fair to say that 2021 looks far brighter, with a noticeable uptick in transactions and activity across the Real Estate arena.
Certainly, 2020 has brought about significant change in every facet of life, and Real Estate appears no different – asset classes that were once considered a safe bet are no longer as reliable, whilst demand for quality logistics space has skyrocketed and continues to do so.
In this edition, we cover a huge breadth of topics – from the nuances of acquiring distressed assets and portfolios to scratching the surface on how insurance can play a positive role in a business’ Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) evaluation and reporting.
