The global real estate rebound is under threat

Ipad Frame - The-global-real-estate-rebound-is-under-threat

A less positive economic outlook and rising downside risks are threatening the global real estate recovery. Our baseline forecast is for global all property returns to grow by 7.6% pa over 2022-2023. But risk-adjusted returns are weaker, at 7.3% pa, based on the weighted-average of all risk scenarios.

What you will learn:

  • The biggest risk to the real estate cycle is inflation, which in our return of inflation risk scenario lowers all property performance to 4.4% pa.
  • Prolonged supply-chain disruptions are seen as the greatest risk by our real estate clients.
  • Conversely, under a consumer boom scenario, all property returns jump 2.4ppts above the baseline.

Takaichi’s big win doesn’t affect the fiscal outlook for Japan

The ruling Liberal Democratic Party's (LDP) landslide election victory on Sunday doesn't change our expectation of a primary fiscal deficit of 2%-3% of GDP in FY2026-FY2028 – we still see the deficit only starting to decline from FY2029. We also keep our view that the 10-year Japanese government bond (JGB) yield will be at 2.3% at end-2026 and 2.5% at end-2027 and beyond.
