While global growth forecasts for 2018 and 2019 remain strong, the pace of expansion appears to have peaked in some countries.
In the eurozone, forecasters see robust growth of 2% in 2018. However, GDP growth is expected to dip slightly in 2020 with the gradual disappearance of some supportive factors. The inflation rate is forecast to approach 1.7% on an annual basis, much higher than over the period 2009-2016.
While energy and food made significant contributions to this growth in 2017, nonvolatile components are set to take their place and drive identical inflation out to 2020. A change in the inflation regime, an advanced indicator of interest rate hikes, has therefore materialised.
In this context, Henry-Aurelien Natter analyse the european real estate market.
