RESEARCH INVESTMENT 215
INVESTMENT 215 INVESTMENT AVERAGE TRANSACTION VOLUME The average transaction has bottomed to the minimum for the last 6 years reaching $81 million. Such low level is due to a decrease in the price of assets as well as the unavailability of debt financing for investors, necessary for large acquisitions. Thus, more transactions less than $1 million were closed in 215. $ mln 13 12 11 1 9 8 7 6 5 8.85 18.11 85.32 72.7 $ $2.7 bln INVESTMENT TRASACTION VOLUME IN 215 The 215 volume of commercial real estate sale transactions has reached the lowest since 26, decreased by 27% compared to 214.

On the one hand, the price of the assets significantly reduced and became affordable for investors, however on the other hand, the conversion of the commercial real estate market to ruble terms made the rental income less attractive. Though the most quality assets retain foreign exchange pricing today. Capital raising markets still remain closed for Russian companies combined with the introduction of sanctions restrictions in 214, also reflecting the low activity of investors. Throughout the year, in addition to the familiar US and European investors, the representatives of the Middle East and Asia started to heighten interest to Russian assets, but not a single transaction was closed with their participation in 215. Asian investors are interested not only in high-quality stabilized commercial properties, but also the market of residential real estate segment as well as infrastructure projects. The volume of transactions with the participation of foreign capital amounted to $54 million following the results of 215, the lowest level since 29.

INVESTMENT 215 Despite the clearly marked buyer's market, investors face a deficit of high-quality assets. The instability of rental income due to declining rental rates and the desire of tenants to renegotiate the lease terms, is a barrier to potential investors who explore the market in terms of stabilized assets. Contrary to expectations, in 215 there were only a few transactions with the transfer of ownership to the banks provided credit due to the failure of landlords to fulfill their obligations to pay the loan debt. However, due to the further decline of the market such cases may become more common in 216.
