Real Estate Footprint: How companies are realigning their locations and property portfolios

Many companies use their property primarily for operational purposes. However, there is growing pressure to reassess sites and buildings and adapt them to current space requirements. Our latest issue of the Real Estate Bulletin highlights the strategic questions this raises and explains how companies, investors and public sector organisations can adapt their property portfolios to new framework conditions and thereby unlock additional value potential.

From the question of location to a management task

The focus is on property, which is not viewed purely as an operational resource, but as an asset that influences companies’ financing options and their long-term viability. The articles by our experts shed light on the options available in the event of plant closures, relocations, site consolidation or the repurposing of premises.
