INTERNATIONAL REAL ESTATE 2011

 

The 8th International Real Estate Finance Summit - IREF 2011 set explore Global Real Estate opportunities and the potential of Islamic Finance.

With the backdrop of the new UK coalition government warning of tough times ahead for the country’s public sector and the overall economic outlook in Europe still uncertain, the future of the UK, European and Global Real estate Markets will be analyzed and the role of Islamic Finance explored at the 8th IREF Summit in London in Early February 2011.

Some of the best minds from international real estate markets will discuss the developments shaping tomorrow’s market at this the eighth in the series of annual International Real Estate Forums being held at the Jumeriah Carlton Towers on the 2nd and 3rd of February 2011.

A key driver of the forum will be the importance of liquidly in these difficult times and the role that Islamic finance can play as a conduct to investment from GC and other Muslim Jurisdictions. Will the key to success to opportunities in global real estate markets be driven by the coming together of these factors?

Investment from the GCC and other Islamic jurisdictions has historically favored key real estate real estate markets such as the UK. At the same time the UK market with support from legislative and industry bodies have, in response to the increasing demand for Shariah complaint structures, played an important role in facilitating the continued growth of the Islamic financing industry in the UK. Similar developments are also taking place in other major European centers such as France, Luxembourg and further afield in Turkey, Hong Kong, and Singapore to name but a few.

This has resulted in centers such as, London becoming one of the world’s leading Islamic finance jurisdictions attracting huge investments, from the global Islamic finance industry; particularly into London’s commercial and high end residential real estate sectors.

As the UK financial and real estate industries have becoming more and more attune with Islamic financing structures Islamic investors have become more comfortable and adventurous, drawn to not only London but also country wide investment opportunities.

The same is now true of global opportunities as Islamic real estate investors are now active in all continents of the world. The 2011 IREF Summit is proud to have the participation of leading experts and major institutions form key global real estate markets who will shed light on and share knowledge of their particular markets.

During the one and half days of proceedings, the UK, European and GCC markets will be looked at in detail; the Role of Islamic financing will also be addressed from a number of perspectives with emphasis on demystifying some of the structures as well providing an opportunity to interact first hand with Shariah scholars.

Case studies of current landmark transactions utilizing Islamic financing in Muslim as well as Western jurisdictions will be looked at in depth by the entities involved in those transactions.

Special regional and country show cases of countries and sectors experiencing a current boom in their real estate markets such as: Brazil, Malaysia; Qatar, Turkey and the Caucuses will also constitute an important aspect of IREF 2011.
