Forward-looking investors like the financial resilience and increasing transparency of markets in Latin\u00a0<\/strong>America.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Canadian investments like the big pension plans are starting to look back at Mexico as an attractive proposition given the stability it showed throughout the recent financial crisis,\u201d <\/span>Eduardo G\u00fc\u00e9mez<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThere are still growth opportunities in Brazil and Mexico, where we see opportunities both for development and acquisitions,\u201d said Eduardo G\u00fc\u00e9mez,<\/em> a Managing Director of LaSalle Investment<\/em> Management<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Mexico\u2019s office market is extremely attractive, although it\u2019s getting harder to find assets. \u201cWe see a more crowded market given the influx of new capital from the local pension plans who before could not invest in real estate and are now doing it actively. That gives a lot more liquidity and more exit strategies.\u201d<\/p>\n

G\u00fc\u00e9mez<\/em> also likes industrial markets in Mexico, especially over the long term. \u201cClearly, the industrial market will have substantial growth given the reindustrialization of the whole of North America. Given changes in natural gas pricing and the whole dynamics of that, and the latest big thrust by the US to try to bring back manufacturing\u2014that\u2019s going to open up a lot of opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Investors looking for new growth markets are also beginning to consider Columbia and Peru, he says. \u201cColumbia and Peru have similar stories to what Mexico had several years back. Y<\/em>ou have a growing middle class, more access to credit, and a more stable market for new opportunities that are maybe not as crowded as the other two countries.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
