According to Massimo Caputi, Deputy Chairman of Prelios, called to comment at the Conference on ExpoReal 2014 on the return of foreign investors interest for Italy, there are three points on which the sector should immediately focus to revive the market: 1) make the institutional investors return on the residential market, as in other countries, e.g. in Germany; 2) reconsider the regulations that weigh on market funds as of April 2010; 3) extend the duration of investment funds to prevent them from becoming the object of speculative investments.
Caputi also stressed the importance of an international event such as Expo Real, inviting Italian operators to offer an appropriate product not to miss an opportunity, with the goal to make the Italian institutional investors, now limited to a general interest in our country with an opportunistic approach, come back to Italy.
