Insights
Major industry players are seeking to strategically deploy and optimize their capital investments in this sector.
Over the coming years, further gains are anticipated. Major industry players are seeking to strategically deploy and optimize their capital investments, and strong investor appetites, coupled with the availability of flexible and creative capital sources, will fuel demand for hotel acquisitions. Furthermore, the continued increase in cross-border capital flows will intensify competition in gateway markets among traditional financial investors, presenting new financial and tax implications for both domestic and foreign investors.
Climate for hospitality capital markets activity should remain favorable.
Barring any shocks to the system, the climate for hospitality capital markets activity should remain favorable. The rising availability of hotel development financing in mature markets will allow for more robust pipelines; assets in secondary markets will attract further interest from developers; and Asian investors, private equity funds and REITs are anticipated to remain motivated buyers. For several years, confidence in the economy and in deal markets has improved. The recent surge of mergers and acquisitions activity appears reminiscent of 2007. But the way the available capital is channeled reflects the lessons learned since the financial crisis.
