Hill is climbing higher

Article Abstract:

Schroder Properties believes that there are considerable benefits to be gained from its move into speculative building, according to managing director William Hill. The 400 million pounds sterling Schroders Exempt Property Unit Trust fund has seen 10 projects get underway since it was set up in 1993, with the largest being the redevelopment of Borax House in Victoria, London. The company is not only focusing on traditional institutional investment sectors, but has also moved into new areas, such as the factory outlet shopping centre sector.

Institutional property investment is predicted to be considerably lower in 1995 than in 1994.
