Directors from Moore Stephens in Jersey recently attended Expo Real, the International Trade Fair for Property and Investment in Munich, Germany.
Partners Adrian Moll and Nick Solt, along with business development professional, Robert Leutkehaus, attended the conference in conjunction with colleagues from the German Moore Stephens network to share an exhibition space at the event.
Expo Real is the biggest B2B trade show for property and investment in Europe and provides firms and businesses in the real estate sector with the chance to present their offering. This year the event attracted 36,000 participants from 68 countries and 400 speakers participated in the programme providing an overview of current trends and innovations in the property, investment and finance markets.
One area that was explored was the subject of reinvestment into the economies in the Euro Zone who have suffered more in the financial crisis than those such as Germany and the UK. The conference hinted at a return of investment into Spain where some are now seeing opportunities to invest, however it was noted that timing would be the key element to consider.
Nick Solt, director of Moore Stephens Fund Administration in Jersey, said: “The continued health of the German economy was good to see as Germany remains an important investment market for Jersey real estate structures and funds. The improved outlook and return to confidence in the real estate sector is also good for Jersey given the strong reputation it has in the market for structures that invest in that asset class.
“The Expo was really useful in that we were able to meet many of our clients and contacts in one place and it allowed us to develop the strong relationships that we have with them, as well as giving us the opportunity to meet prospective clients and new contacts.”
