#EXPOREAL Asian capital wave hits Germany

Asia is a hot spot as a capital source for real estate investment in Germany, according to Peter Schreppel, CEO of CBRE Germany.

‘There are bags of money - many billions of euros - coming out of Korea, Malaysia, China and Taiwan. The Japanese are waking up as well,’ he said.

The capital flows are also coming from other parts of the world, he added. ‘The Americans are back in the market, at all levels of the risk curve. And Middle Eastern investors never really left. The only ones I haven’t seen so far in this cycle are the Australians.’
