About the conference this year...
 
Global private equity players are now scrambling to invest in the GCC region. For a while, many local and international private equity property funds have looked to the region only to raise cash; today they are looking to the Middle East for opportunities to invest that cash and the real estate and construction sectors are attracting the lion’s share of these investments. The growth in the numbers of businesses funded by private equity is sure to add liquidity to the region’s equity and debt markets; and the influx of private equity cash seeking local real estate investments will likely raise the level of sophistication of active capital management in the Middle East markets.
 
REIW Middle East 2008 provides a comprehensive coverage of the markets, capital, and investment trends in the real estate sector and its outlook for the future. Key highlights at the forum include:
 
  • An assessment of the influx of capital entering the Middle East real estate sector and anticipated cash flows for the next 12 months
  • Analysing how real estate private equity funds market will be a significant driver of real estate transactions in the Gulf region
  • A look at institutional investors’ asset allocation strategy into real estate, how they are balancing capital flows with investment competition in mature markets (e.g., US, Western Europe, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong) and the complexity of emerging markets (e.g., China, India, Middle East)
  • High-level market insights covering the core and opportunistic property sectors in the Middle East
