Global investment set to rise by 50%: report

The Colliers Global Investment Prospects Report expects global investment to grow by up to 50 percent in 2021. According to data from the report, as many as 98 percent of investors plan to expand their portfolios. The study by Colliers foresees a widespread recovery of confidence in the real estate market in the second half of the year as a result of vaccination initiation and continued government support for entrepreneurs.

“In our opinion, 2021 will be characterized by fluctuations in the investment market due to the ongoing pandemic restrictions, but we expect further capital inflow, especially in the logistics and office sectors. The Polish market will continue to offer attractive rates of return compared to other developed Western European economies, which will ensure that Poland will again maintain its position as the CEE leader and increase its dominance in the region,” Piotr Mirowski, senior partner, director of Investment Advisory at Colliers International, said.

The report was based on the opinions of nearly 300 respondents, including leading institutional investors, listed companies, state-owned equity funds, private equity funds, family office funds, and external financial advisors.
