Property investments in Europe have risen to a record level in 2006 and investor interest continues to rise. Demand for real estate as an asset class is rising especially among institutional investors as real estate investments provide an alternative option that highly diversifies their portfolios. Property derivatives are an indirect investment vehicle through which investors can get exposure to the property market quickly and easily without directly buying the bricks or land. At the same time property derivatives offer investors more liquidity, lower transaction costs and more accurate pricing than other investment options. However while the property derivatives market is thriving in the UK, people are looking towards continental Europe as the next “big thing”.

This specialised marcus evans conference explores the ways to access the European property derivatives market and shows what investors have to gain. It clarifies the way the market works and answers the operational questions key players have. Through case studies property derivatives experts will debate how to be successful in the European market and will present how the market is moving towards increased liquidity.
