hospitalityInside and Union Investment launch a new industry tool
Augsburg/Hamburg (January 10, 2014). The hotel trade magazine hospitalityInside.com, Augsburg and Union Investment Real Estate, Hamburg have started a new industry index: the "hospitalityINSIDE Investment BAROMETER" – online and accessible for all interested persons. The overall index will be published on hospitalityInside's website on a quarterly basis and via Union Investment. Participants will also receive a more detailed analysis.
With the new "hospitalityINSIDE Investment BAROMETER", both partners want to survey the moods and evaluations concerning investments in the international hotel industry as well as the hotel market. Hoteliers, project developers, investors, banks, funds, owners and who deals with hotel properties are invited to participate in this survey.
There will be three questions in every survey in order to be able to generate a long term index. The other questions will analyse current trends and refer to different topics in every survey. The questions can be answered with a few clicks as the responses can be chosen from a provided selection of answers. The overall index will be published at hospitalityInside.com and made available on the website until the publication of the next results. Participants will also receive a more detailed analysis.
In order to ascertain the industry's mood on an international level in the long term, the Investment BAROMETER has been consciously set up as online tool, available in German and English.
"The survey itself is anonymous, the registration data of the participants will not be linked to the answers – precautions have been taken by the IT department," ensures Maria Puetz-Willems, Editor in Chief of hospitalityInside.com. "We know how sensitive such surveys are, especially when insiders are asked for their evaluations."
"There has been a lot of movement in the hotel asset class. With improved transparency, this fascinating investment form will be able to score among risk-averse institutional investors," says Andreas Loecher, Head of Investment Management Hotel at Union Investment Real Estate GmbH. "From the evaluations of the hotel experts, valuable indications can be deduced concerning trends that will be implemented as products tomorrow."
Analogously to market developments, the questionnaire will continue to develop as well. / map
