Phil Westerman, our head of real estate, has been featured in Property Week discussing the year ahead for property developers.

He covers how after an unprecedented two years, there are still challenges ahead, ranging from the planning system and government policy on sustainability to lending issues and the wariness of investors.

Now is the time for longer-term planning, for reassessing market needs and to be proactive rather than reactive. That means active engagement in planning reform, transparent reporting to better access finance for tech investment and dealing with energy requirements

Phil also discusses other opportunities for the sector, such as the redevelopment of existing spaces, and the steps developers should be taking now to thrive in 2022.
