Wisconsin MBA students in real estate attended today's major panel sessions at MIPIM. The major story from the one of the last of Tuesday's sessions: "Central Europe: Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold?" was the strength of the investment environment in Poland:
Europe is no longer classified as East and West, but rather North and South. And Northern Europe is emerging with an attractive investment environment.
Poland--specifically Warsaw--has seen a lot of activity, particularly large infrastructure improvements being built for Euro 2012 (the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship). Plus favorable cap rates, interest rates, and afforable debt in Warsaw have created a friendly real estate environment. Poland has earned a spot on the target country list for large institutional real estate investors.
Our coverage of the sessions at MIPIM continues tomorrow, so bookmark the Wisconsin Real Estate Viewpoint. And be sure to visit MIPIM World blog for video and other exclusive content.

MIPIM 2010: Increasing interest in Poland
Wisconsin Real Estate MBAs report from MIPIM 2010:
Tuesday March 16
Panel: Poland - Land of Opportunity
Poland—able to weather the economic crisis of 2008-2009 by having stricter credit policies for banks, no dynamic growth of foreign debt as in other countries, less sophisticated financial instruments, and a stock market with a smaller influence on the economy—is attracting increasing interest from foreign investors.
Warsaw, in particular, currently has a city centre ripe for redevelopment. In the short term, €17 billion is expected to be invested in infrastructure in Gdansk, Poznan, Warsaw, and Wroclaw—the four event venues for the Euro 2012 soccer tournament.

Wisconsin Real Estate MBAs report from MIPIM 2010:

Panel: South East Europe: Riding Out the Storm
Poland shines as a lone bright spot in Eastern Europe with positive GDP growth in 2009. Other countries such as Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Serbia, and Turkey showed a decline, while Greece faces uniquely difficult macro challenges. Private investments have seen some recovery, but stalled development projects still dot the region. The negative outlook continues throughout 2010. Going forward, real estate professionals will need to find creative solutions.
