    Asia Pacific Retail Snapshot 4Q11

    Economic conditions in the last quarter of 2011 remained slow and steady across the region. Nonetheless, retail sales for most markets registered strong growth and were reported to have surged compared to 2010. International retailers continued to accelerate expansion in the Asia Pacific region, while retail rents on most mainstreets maintained their uptrend. On the backdrop of strong retail fundamentals, retail construction is thriving especially for emerging markets such as China and India. Cushman & Wakefield expects softer growth in 2012 with the outlook for the retail sector continuing to be cautiously optimistic.

    Asia Pacific Office Snapshot 4Q11

    Economic growth momentum continued to wane through the fourth quarter of 2011. Sluggish growth in developed economies, as well as threats of new financial chaos looming in Europe, continued to weaken the region’s manufacturing activity and dampen private spending and investments. Nonetheless, the Asia Pacific office market ended 2011 with a solid upturn in leasing activity. Rent growth was sustained in most markets and strengthening demand fueled flat to declining vacancies. In addition, investment volume for all property types was the highest globally for the third consecutive year. For 2012, Cushman & Wakefield expects softer office fundamentals, on the back of slow economic growth but no recession.

    Asia Pacific Retail Report 3Q11

    Whilst several factors underpin the regional outlook, progress in employment, income, regional travel and tourism will continue to sustain meaningful growth and fuel the retail sector in the region. Retail fundamentals remain solid with strong consumer spending in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing leading to higher retail rents and Asian markets have been a target for retailers. With various policy tools and government initiatives in place combined with growth opportunities in China and India seen in incessant retail construction, Cushman & Wakefield expects the Asia Pacific retail sector to remain significant on a global scale through 2012

    Asia Pacific Office Report 3Q11

    Amid uncertainty and market volatility during the third quarter, office fundamentals continued to hold up generally in many markets within the region. The Grade A vacancy rate remained low, albeit slightly higher from mid-year. Rental rates continued their uptrend in most markets, and set another record in Beijing and Hong Kong. Meanwhile, rents in Tokyo dipped to their 10-year lows. While a protracted global slowdown could impact the region, Cushman & Wakefield expects overall economic and property fundamentals to remain intact for the remainder of the year.
