UK PROPERTY MARKET

Demand for logistics space in the UK will continue to be resilient during 2020 whilst industrial and logistics rents are due to continue to outperform most other sectors Over the longer term the outbreak may fast-track the adoption of remote working and investment into collaborative technologies Structural, cyclical and temporary factors will continue to exert pressure on the retail sector throughout 2020 resulting in further CVA’s and business failure In the short term it is expected that volumes may decline and selective yield hardening may occur Investment activity is likely to slow in H1 2020 as investors react to uncertainty, with the retail and hospitality sectors being the most affected. A shift to defensive assets is expected
