Stabilisation is evident in both investment and occupational markets • Sector poised to benefit from improving UK economy and consumer sentiment • Yet, not all assets have the same prospects - Ellandi view Community rather than Comparison • Community Shopping Centres play to the strengths of the discount & convenience sectors, the growth segment of UK retail • With good portfolio construction and expert asset management Investors stand to benefit from rental growth, asset management gains and cyclical yield tightening
