The Role of Property in Recessionary Cycles
Event date: 9 Mar 2010
For the property professionals and traders, taking measured risks on the markets is one thing but how do the occupiers feel? How often do we truly anticipate downturn requirements in lease and other contract negotiations? This seminar will harness the knowledge of major occupiers to the benefit of smaller occupiers and those who deal with property issues less frequently.
Venue: Financial Dynamics, Holborn Gate, 26 Southampton Building, London
That property markets and economies are cyclical is an incontrovertible truth. So why do we make some of the property decisions that we do? Recent BCO research suggests that the answer is that a more proactive and strategic behaviour is required.Cyrill Sweett were the authors of Nicholas Ridley's BCO Presidential Project The Role of Property in Recessionary Cycles and will present their findings at this breakfast seminar. A number of questions will be asked including:
• Do we take property seriously as an issue for our business?
• Do we have accurate data on our property in one place?
• Are we clear on what data we need?
• What do we know about our space?
• Do we know our strategy for the provision of space in the future?
• Do we have accurate data on our property in one place?
• Are we clear on what data we need?
• What do we know about our space?
• Do we know our strategy for the provision of space in the future?
