Market Summary – In collaboration with MBE conseil

Zoom on SCPIs

Since mid-2022, when a new market cycle began, much attention has shifted to the latest “rising stars ” of the French real estate market: SCPIs. How resilient are these real estate investment vehicles in the face of the ongoing upheavals in the French business environment?
What of the rise in key interest rates and their impact on asset values? With regard to the challenges that are now on the minds of all real estate players, are new realities such as changing workplaces and environmental issues primary concerns?

We have been approached by many parties for advice regarding these new market complexities. In order to provide expert guidance, the Catella Capital Markets teams and MBE Conseil have combined their know-how and their databases to share their vision and analyze these major real estate market players.

Through this study, we aim to share the knowledge gained by our daily experiences, both as market players and as keen observers of the major “tectonic shifts” that are profoundly reshaping real estate markets.

Non-residential real estate is largely a long-term industry. Thoughtful and insightful analysis of long-term market trends allows for clearer insight to emerge from the fog of current events, and from the various obstacles typically encountered in the course of our professional operations.

We hereby offer you our expert analysis and insight, gained through our daily interactions with our clients, the data we have collected and the experience we have gained through the deals we make together.
