Developers freeze projects

Great Portland Estates has said that it is putting new developments on hold until the end of 2010 at the earliest and maybe later. Toby Courtauld, chief executive, sees “a significant downturn and the demand side has deteriorated quite strongly”; He has commented that there has been a 66% fall in active demand in the West End of London over the past six months, and this is seen as continuing. The company priorities are now capital conservation, maximizing occupancy levels and crystallizing reversions. Hammerson and Liberty International have also delayed development activity and put major developments on hold in 2009. - (15-11-2008)

London economy slows

The Centre for Economics and Business Research has said that growth in London's economy will be cut by more than half in 2001 as the downturn in the economy affects firms in the capital. The decline in corporate finance work and stock market slump will see the financial services sector act as a drag on London's growth. The CEBR expects the London economy to grow by just 2.1% this year, down from 5% last year. In 2002 growth could increase slightly to 2.6% but will be behind the national average of 3%. The report on London's economy also predicts 10,000 job losses. - (18-05-2001)
