London office deals slumped to lowest for 20 years
Almost no one was buying office space in the capital in the final quarter of 2022. Less than £400 million of offices were bought and sold, an 88% drop from the prior quarter, according to CoStar. That’s worse than the decline during the financial crisis or Covid lockdowns. Source: Bloomberg

First USD-denominated bond issued by a Chinese property developer since September 2021!
New positive sign for the Chinese real estate sector? After 16 months of waiting, the dollar-denominated debt market has reopened for a Chinese property developer, Wanda Properties, without any guarantee from the Chinese government. This new issue was well received by investors as the book was oversubscribed four times. However, the majority of investors were from Asia (>80%) and while this news is positive for the sector (and its liquidity problem), it does not solve the problem of sales (demand) for now.
