Seminar summary

In this paper we study the implications for house price dynamics of the financialization of housing, focusing on real estate investment trusts (REITs). We start by building REIT capital flows measures for 16 advanced and emerging economies for the period 2001-2021. Building on the dramatic rise in REITs valuation and flows, we employ an IV approach to tackle identification and endogeneity issues and we show that REIT capital flows push up house prices significantly. And this effect is not transitory. Looking at the long-run relationship estimating a CS-ECM model, we find that REITs exert significant long-run effects on housing markets. 

 

How to attend this seminar

This seminar will take place on Wednesday 6 December at 2pm.

Welcome you to join us online.

This seminar is free to attend with no need register in advance.
