12/12/22 - Market View: Private Equity Real Estate Investment Outlook for 2023, Prospects for Japanese Multifamily Real Estate Assets, Market Player’s view on investors pulling out ot private REITs
It’s all about private equity real estate investments today. Japan has been named by a number of analysts we spoke to on the show as a market to enter thanks to its ultra-easy monetary policy.  But for how long will lower interest rates last especially with Tokyo’s inflation growing at the fastest pace in 40 years in November? Which are the other up and coming markets for private real estate assets? And will we see a value pick up in countries such as the UK? And while investors have turned to private markets to shield themselves from volatilities in public assets for a good part of this year, we saw some investors trying to pull their money out of several private REITs including the US$125 billion unlisted Blackstone Real Estate Investment Trust or BREIT.  So how concerned should we be?  On Market View, Prime Time’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian sat down with Peter Young, CEO and Co-founder at Q Investment Partners for more.

We’ll pick up where we left off with the US market today. In the US, the country’s trade deficit widened for a second month in October, but less than what economists had expected in a Bloomberg poll. But how should we be reading into this piece of data, and how would that fit in the bigger picture along with the hotter than expected jobs report and service industry activity in November? What would this mean for the Federal Reserve and market participants then? Aside from the US, the European Central Bank and the Bank of England are also set to announce their rate decisions next week, but what are analysts projecting for now? On Market View, Prime Time’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to  Anthony Joseph Raza, Head of Multi-Asset Strategy, UOB Asset Management.
