Global Investment Risk in Real Estate –An Investment Option | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

Given the fact that political, economic and financial threats remain unpredictable, the globalization of markets continues. This has contributed to an increase in investment in the cross-border market for real estate. Investment in real estate serves as a collateral protection and facilitates quick credit access. Investment in cross border real estate has also been on the rise, with investors considering real estate as a global asset class. But the higher the risk associated with investment in that market, the greater the uncertainty about returns in that market. The size of the professionally run global investment market for real estate has risen from 8.9 trillion in 2018 to 9.6 trillion in 2019. The factors contributing to this uncertainty, such as country risk, systemic risk, etc., need to be defined and evaluated in order to capture various levels of market risk. This paper clearly focuses on different related global investment risk in real estate when considering it as an investment option.
