Overview:

The UK is now seeing signs of an emergence from recession; however, the overhang of government debt, a foreseeable end of QE and implications of the forthcoming elections raises questions about the sustainability of the recovery. What does this mean for the property market in 2010 and beyond?

Property Week Editor, Giles Barrie, will join Ezra Nahome, CEO and Head of Capital Markets at national property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton, to discuss how property will hold through the aftermath and where opportunities will lie for those holding debt and property. Ezra will be joined by Richard Dakin, Managing Director and Head of Corporate Real Estate Business Support at Lloyds Banking Group, and Toby Courtauld, Chief Executive of Great Portland Estates PLC. The mix of bank, property company and agent will invite an interesting and lively debate.
