KEY VIEWS NEGATIVE SHORT TERM IMPACT , BUT UNCERTAIN LONG TERM REPERCUSSIONS Prime market rents have declined when corporate bond yields have moved out, but investors are protected in the short term due to existing lease contracts In the short term, we expect practical issues with site visits and underwriting to temporarily slow down investment activity. If stock markets remain where they are now, we expect capital values to come down - albeit more slowly than equities. Uncertain long term repercussions as many new protective fiscal and monetary policies are not yet fully implemented and priced into the financial markets. In contrast to the GFC, the current health crisis could be temporary as fundamentals were strong at its outset, possibly signalling a V-shaped recovery. 19 Focused on the Future of Real Estate
