Bernhard Funk - Geographical Allocation in Investments of German Open-ended Real Estate Funds: Does Expectation Impact Country Allocations

Purpose: The article looks at the geographical allocation of real estate investments from German open-ended funds within the last years. The purpose is to identify the changes in geographical allocation within four main European target countries. The main focus is to research whether German open-ended real estate funds reallocated investments from UK to other countries due to expectations of exit from European Union as triggered by the poll in United Kingdom in year 2016. Therefore, the main target of the exploration is to research if a preemptive “BREXIT-expectation-effect” can be found in data.
Method: Based on the theoretical framework considering the role of expectations as found in economic theory, the realized changes in country-specific portfolio allocations of German open-ended funds are compared to investor sentiment voiced in the immediate Brexit-poll-phase.
Findings: The article finds that – unlike common belief –  the Brexit poll from 2016 has not caused fund and portfolio managers from German open-ended real estate funds to significantly diminish holdings in the United Kingdom in favor of holdings in other European countries that may appear beneficiaries of Brexit. It furthermore shows that allocations to United Kingdom have increased at times after the Brexit poll in year 2016. The timespan of the research cannot grasp the post-Brexit execution period, as this is too early to research, given the current postponement of BREXIT execution to January 2020.
Research implications: The research shows that fund and portfolio managers adapt their allocations much more cautiously to expectations, more relying on acutal fundamental economic data and investment opportunities in business cycles than on common sentiment.

Michał Głuszak, Małgorzata Rymarzak - Expectations and House Prices: An Exploratory Analysis

Purpose: Economic theory, as well as numerous empirical evidence coming from various countries suggest that market sentiments have significant impact on house price dynamics.
Methods: In the research we explore the formation of beliefs regarding the past house price dynamics and expectations about future house price developments in Krakow from 2009 to 2018. In the paper we use house price expectations data coming from housing survey. To investigate the role of socio-economic characteristics on prediction accuracy we estimated two logit models, for beliefs and expectations respectively.
Findings: Findings suggest that in most years respondents were able to roughly predict the house price dynamics in the study period, nonetheless residential property market in Krakow was mostly stagnant in that period, and few rapid changes were observed. Respondents failed to foresee changing dynamics of the residential property market in 2014. We did not observe that simple demographic and economic traits, like age and income, correspond with agents success in predicting house price movement.
Value added: The study is the first attempt to explore beliefs and expectations of house buyers in Poland, and one of few research papers on of house price expectation formation in Central Eastern European countries.

Karolina Jarosz, Iwona Foryś - A Public-private Partnership or an Operating Leaseback: Alternative Sources of Financing Public Purpose Real Estate in Poland

Purpose: Public investment in the real estate sector is characterized by high capital intensity and long-term character with low profitability. Local government units and central authorities are obliged to obtain funds for the construction and, in the next stage, for the operation of real estate. The external financing of public purpose real estate, which does not require the use of own resources, or at least not in full, becomes an attractive form of implementation of the tasks of local governments. The aim of the study is to compare two forms of financing local government real estate: a public-private partnership and leasing, to assess these mechanisms and to indicate the barriers to their use in Poland.
Methods: The article presents a comparative analysis of two ways of financing pub projects. Simple statistical tools were used to illustrate the problem and Wards method allows for the grouping of facilities. The analyses were preceded by literature studies.
Findings: The main determinant of the low popularity of PPPs and operating leaseback in relation to real estate in Poland is the unfavorable economic and legal environment of the real estate market and the characteristics of the object of investment in the physical, economic and legal aspect. There is no reliable data on the use of operational reverse leasing by local governments. It was not possible to perform a statistical analysis but a theoretical one.
Research implications: The survey should encourage local governments to consider the possibility of financing real estate investments with the use of operational leaseback and the PPP formula in future projects.

Małgorzata Blaszke, Izabela Rącka, Maciej Nowak, Olga Buzu - Public Purpose Investments in Voivodeship Spatial Development Plans as an Expression of Regional Spatial Policy

Purpose: Defining possible ways to verify and evaluate voivodeship spatial development plans as key spatial policy tools at the voivodeship level.
Methods: The content of all voivodeship spatial development plans was analysed, with a detailed classification of public purpose investments contained therein.
Findings: Based on the conducted research, it can be indicated that data on public purpose investments included in voivodeship spatial development plans can also be used for other analyses. First of all, they are a key manifestation of voivodeship spatial policy. And in this context, an important measure of verifying the activity of a given voivodeship (taking into account all other circumstances) is information about the percentage share of public purpose investments of regional scope in all investments included in the plan.

Maciej J. Nowak, Paweł Mickiewicz, Małgorzata Blaszke Alexnadr Ivanovicz Kostyaev - Regional Development as a Determinant of Spatial Policy Tools

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to determine how key conditions, from the perspective of regional development, are reflected in the local implementation of spatial policy in Poland (i.e. in local spatial development plans).
Findings: In total, 189 local spatial development plans were analyzed - i.e. all those adopted in 2017-2018 with the exception of local plans constituting minor (primarily technical) changes to earlier resolutions. The research results, however, lead to the conclusion that the problem is the issue of balancing development on a regional scale. In this perspective, the spatial policy pursued by most communes deepens negative tendencies found in the literature.
Research implications: However, one problem that hinders the guarantee of effective implementation of these objectives is the chaos of municipal spatial policies, including very limited comprehensive territorial approach
