PropertyEU explores consolidation in French listed sector

France's listed real estate sector has seen a new M&A wave in the past few months, marked by the Icade-Silic merger and the acquisition of Foncière Paris France.

Will the round of mergers and acquisitions continue in the coming months? What are the drivers of this consolidation drive?

PropertyEU will explore the outlook for the listed property sector in its France Investment Briefing to be held in London on 5 July (rescheduled from 21 June). The event is hosted by international law firm Squire Sanders at 7 Devonshire Square in London.

Olivier de Molliens, deputy CEO & head of investment at property adviser Keops - Colliers International will give the keynote market presentation during the event. Following that, a panel of leading real estate professionals active in the French market will provide local investment intelligence and a time-efficient briefing on the latest developments in the market, covering valuations, sectors and regions, risks and investment opportunities.

The panel members are Philippe Bresteau, CEO of Keops - Colliers International; Philippe Duvergne, managing director, real estate finance international, France at German lender Pbb Deutsche Pfandbriefbank and Francois Rispe, senior vice president and regional director Southern Europe at distribution property specialist Prologis.

PropertyEU Investment Briefings are designed for senior decision-makers in cross-border investment markets who represent institutional investors, listed and unlisted companies, investment managers, advisors, banks, sovereign wealth funds and private equity firms. Entry is limited to 60-80 people to ensure a high quality interactive session where both attendees and speakers make connections with senior market colleagues.
