About The Conference
Following its successful debut in New York last fall, highlighted by the honor of ringing the Nasdaq Closing Bell, iGlobal Forum hosted its Global REIT Summit 2014: Listed, Non-Traded & Private REITs! This Summit was held on October 1st, 2014 in New York City. Currently valued at over a trillion dollars, the REIT marketplace continues to gain momentum, attracting retail and institutional investors alike with consistently high after-tax returns, instant liquidity, and surprising resiliency in the face of market volatility. This outperformance is expected to continue as the Fed appears reluctant to risk choking off the nascent economic recovery by prematurely raising interest rates. And while the level of REIT IPOs, liquidity events and mergers probably won’t match the records set in 2013, capital market transactions continue strong, and recent favorable rulings on REIT conversions have increased activity in non-traditional and specialty sectors such as data warehouses, outdoor advertising, cell phone towers, telecommunications networks, and even solar farms. The Global REIT Summit 2014: Listed, Non-Traded & Private REITs provided the perfect platform to network and connect with REIT executives, private equity investors, hedge funds, investment bankers, lenders, broker-dealers, and asset managers.
