PRIVATE MEETING

INTRODUCTION BY GRI

How are Latin American real estate investment vehicles responding to the high uncertainty and disrupted revenue streams the pandemic has unleashed? In the last month, the global financial markets have seen many first-time events and real estate players are on standby, awaiting for the dust to settle. LatAm’s REITs are much younger than US REITS that have been in the market for more than 40 years. This eMeeting will gather the region’s most important leaders to discuss the impact the pandemic has had on real estate investment vehicles and the challenges they will face in the short and medium term ahead.

Discussion will touch on

Lease structures and Contracts: How are players working with tenants to make the best of the crisis?
Opportunities on the Horizon: Are REITs looking at purchasing new assets during the crisis and what type have caught their eye?
Liquidity battle: What strategies are being implemented to secure cash flow as many LatAm countries remain on lockdown until the end of July?
New Normal: What will be the main changes the real estate market will see once lockdowns are lifted and activity restarts?
What Latin American countries are the most attractive for investment and what factors worry players the most?
