1 Home Away from Home? Safe Haven Effects and London House Prices Cristian Badarinza Tarun Ramadorai Oxford, 25 October 2013
2 Overview Global political and economic uncertainty are currently extremely high both fluctuate substantially over time. One frequently mentioned reaction to uncertainty flight to safe haven assets (with associated asset price impact). Gold, U.S. treasuries, cash, real estate. Empirical evidence for safe-haven demand sparse time-series power limited by short samples and infrequent global crises. Our paper: Provides empirical evidence that London real estate acts as a global safe haven asset. Innovative strategy utilizes cross-sectional variation in population of London wards, identified with specific global regions. Sheds light on mechanisms through which safe haven demand shocks affect London house prices. 2 of 28
3 Public media "Worsening financial and political turmoil in Southern Europe caused a surge of interest in London property [...] with buyers from Greece and Spain showing strongly among investors seeking a safe haven for their money." Reuters (2012) "There is a real lack of data to underpin a systematic study of the market impact of overseas investment in London. Such information as exists is usually either anecdotal or is irrelevant [...]. Even where data is collected spatial definitions do not always correspond to those used in other housing related research. [...] Anyone doubting the scale and potential impact of overseas investment in London should note that at 5.2 billion in 2011 it was a larger sum than the whole Government investment in the Affordable Housing Programme for England for four years. The Programme stands at 4.5 billion for the entire period." Andrew Heywood (2012), International Union for Housing Finance 3 of 28

6 Methodology - An Illustration Time-series evidence difficult usual "out of the money put option return" problem. Utilize the power of the cross-section. Consider the following example: In late 2009 and early 2010, shock to economic and political uncertainty in Greece. Assume Greek residents wish to purchase safe haven residences in London. Identifying assumption: Preferred locations for Greek safe-haven demand are London wards with relatively high pre-existing share of Greek population. Also use other identifying variables: language share, high-income locations, etc. Expect to see relatively higher price increases in these wards following rise in Greek uncertainty. Note: cross-sectional identification does not use aggregate rise in London prices during the crisis. Note: need to control for variation in hedonic characteristics of properties. 6 of 28
7 Methodology Consider the following hedonic house price model: ln P l,w,t = α + βx l + Π w,t +u l,w,t. Here, P l,w,t is the price of property l, which is physically located in ward w, in time period t X l are hedonic characteristics for the property. Π w,t are ward-time fixed effects. Let {z m,k,t } m M,k K be a set M of indicators of economic and political conditions, for a country group K, in period t. Approach is to estimate the relationship between Π w,t and {z m,k,t } m M,k K. 7 of 28
8 Consider the following specification for Π w,t : Π w,t = θc w + δ t + γ k,0 f w,k + (γ m,k,1 f w,k + γ m,k,2 y w,k )z m,k,t. k K Here f w,k is the fraction of people in ward w who were born in country k, and y w,k is a ward-level indicator of desirability, e.g. pre-existing net average income. Implied restrictions: k K The variation across wards is driven by: C w and {f w,k, y w,k } k K. The variation across time is driven by: z m,k,t 8 of 28

18 Results Evidence for house price appreciation in areas with higher shares of foreignborn people, in response to higher political risk in the respective country regions. Parallel mechanism: in response to risk shocks in China, the Middle East and Russia, capital is channeled towards areas with higher income levels. Effects are consistent across the mortgage and transactional data sets. A foreign risk shock of one standard deviation is found to lead to up to 1 percent higher house prices in wards which lie one standard deviation above the median in terms of their share of foreign-born people. The same shock would lead to up to 2 percent higher house prices in richer wards, depending on the country of origin. 18 of 28

23 Immigration and house price appreciation Our identification assumption is that wards with high immigration shares attract international investment, in times of financial and political distress. One possibility is that these investments are carried out by wealthy, well-informed people and are driven by a purely speculative motive. However, when the external risks actually materialise for a broader part of the domestic population, we expect the capital flows towards London to be accompanied by subsequent increases in immigration. Research question: are price increases in wards with higher shares of foreignborn people a signal of increased future immigration? The relocation of people is expected to occur at a much slower pace and to have long-lasting effects on the demographic structure of the UK population. We use Census information between 2001 and 2011 to test this hypothesis only available for a restricted set of countries Note: this is currently work in progress 23 of 28
24 Obtain the residuals and fitted values from hedonic regressions, estimated for each country and variable separately: ln P l,w,t = α + βx l + θc w + δ t + γ 0 f w + (γ 1 f w + γ 2 y w)z t + u l,w,t. Calculate yearly ward-level averages u τ w and lnp τ w for each year τ. Consider the following ward-level quantities: change in the share of foreign-born people: f w fw 2011 fw 2001 actual price change between 1996 and 2001, net of control variables: u w u 2001 w u 1996 w predicted change in average prices between 1996 and 2001: ln P w P 2001 w P 1996 w 24 of 28

28 Conclusions The paper proposes a novel empirical identification methodogy to document the influence of international macroeconomic and political developments on the London housing market. The estimation results indicate economically large, statistically significant and robust spillover effects along two parallel transmission mechanisms, while also highlighting the differential impact of foreign shocks across property categories. The analysis incorporates two micro-level datasets on mortgage loans and house purchase transactions, includes hedonic property characteristics and controls for regional heterogeneity through a set of social, economic and demographic characteristics. We show that pre-2001 price developments predict post-2001 migration patterns at ward level. This provides additional evidence on the mechanisms likely to play a role in the international transmission of financial and political shocks. Work in progress: further understanding of the relationship between immigration and house price appreciation analysis of regional spillovers and diffusion patterns of house prices 28 of 28
