The Great Retail Debate - Is your Retail Intelligence "Bullish" or " Bearish"?

The retail debate was held at BAFTA in London on the 29 April 2009. 

Over 100 retail and investor clients opened the debate by voting on some of the key issues in the retail property sector.  Speakers from Jones Lang LaSalle delivered their opinion, Bullish or Bearish, from an Economic, Finance, Retailer and Investor perspective before the results of the vote were revealed. 

73% believed that turnover rents would fundamentally change the way we value retail property
64% felt the recession would prompt consumers to boost savings at the expense of retail spending
31% believed we would see a sustainable upturn in capital values before June 2010
