Property lending barometer 2011

CEE Property Lending Barometer 2011 is an essential read for those interested in the prospects for bank financing in the real estate sector in the Central & Eastern European (CEE) region. Companies and stakeholders in this sector have been under extreme pressure in the global economic crisis, but the financing of CEE real estate has improved over the last 12 months. There has been a significant increase in real estate investment transactions compared to 2010, but the performance of real estate has varied greatly across the different countries and asset classes. Much of the transaction activity has occurred in the countries with better macroeconomic performance and that are geographically closer to the more mature markets of Western Europe. Bank financing will play a vital role in the recovery and the development of the sector in the region. As a result, the lending sentiment for real estate projects remains without a doubt a crucial issue for developers, investors, banks and a range of other stakeholders alike.
