The economic growth of China has been driven by the development of its real estate market, especially after the 2008 crisis. This growth is mostly related to the huge housing bubble and growing amounts of sovereign debt that have been redirected to corporations in the sector. Evergrande is one of those corporations; it is a Chinese company in the construction and real estate sector, a global giant with investments in many parts of the world. Its bond default in September 2021 sounded alerts in financial markets. Several news outlets spoke of the “next Lehman Brothers”, and apprehension was very high, especially in Asian markets. This research work aims to evaluate the impact of Evergrande’s bond default on six Asian stock markets, using an event study approach. The results show a strong reaction from the markets towards the event in study, even anticipating it. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning a quick reversion to “normal” behavior, indicating the rapid absorption of information by the markets. Full article

We propose a simple three-factor pricing model, consisting of a local stock market index, a global REIT market index, and a global stock market index, to examine the dependence structure of conditional volatilities in the real estate investment trust (REIT) market from 11 countries over the sample period from 1 June 2008 to 30 April 2021. The main quantile regression results reveal that a simultaneous dependence structure exists between each REIT market and local stock, global REIT market, and global stock market. There is a positive and significant dependence between REITs and three factors for every part of the quantiles. Across each quantile, Asia-Pacific REIT markets have a consistently higher average degree of dependence with their local stock markets than with the global stock and global REIT markets, whereas European REIT markets are generally more globally integrated. Furthermore, the lower and upper quantile estimates for over half of the REIT-quantiles for the three market factors are statistically different. Additionally, some REIT markets display asymmetric co-movement with at least one of the three factors as the degree of dependence increases when these markets are booming, but the dependence level declines when the markets are bearish. This evidence of dependence across the three influential factors and REIT markets provides meaningful insights into REIT market growth, international asset pricing, risk management, and dynamic linkages in the global economy.

This article presents how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the valuation profession in Poland in the early stages of its most severe restrictions and limitations. This study is the first to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on the professional activities of property valuers. In particular, it aims to identify the difficulties associated with valuers’ activities during the first lockdown and the impact of restrictions on business performance. The data analyzed come from a survey of Polish valuers in September 2020. The questions were of a closed-ended nature. Using a five-point Likert scale, respondents expressed their opinions on the difficulties and benefits of their work in the first COVID-19 period. The results show that the respondents experienced difficulties related to the pandemic and noted its negative impact on business performance. The most significant problem was the limited access to public institutions supporting the valuation process and providing market data on real estate transactions. The respondents also indicated other problems related to property valuation, as well as some positive effects for their business. Full article
