PAT Perspectives #9: The student housing investment proposition and its value-add edge in the European living sector

Ever since PATRIZIA’s formation in 1984, the company has had a focus on the European living sector. This evergreen focus is reflected in the company’s new strategy, which is targeting growth to EUR 100 billion AUM by 2030, with the living sector one of the five growth areas central to this ambition. One of the most eye-catching sub-sectors in this growth area is student housing, or purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA). But what makes PBSA such a compelling investment proposition in Europe?PAT Perspectives is the podcast where we ask our guests five key questions on one topic or trend shaping the real assets sector and in this episode, we meet Antonio Marin-Bataller - PATRIZIA’s Head of Investment Management Living. Antonio shares his views on where the student housing market in Europe is strongest, how the sector fits into the real estate risk spectrum and PATRIZIA’s active role in unearthing excellent student housing investment opportunities on behalf of its clients.Find out more at https://www.patrizia.ag/en/6d3ac12ca8b92980aed55937458c1a18385e2523
