Panel: Will changing demographics make the living sector the defining investment theme of the next decade?

As aging populations, shrinking households, and urban migration reshape global housing demand, institutional capital is flowing into the living sector like never before.

Investor Panel: From Yen to real estate – Japanese investors’ playbook for the next 5 years

Mattias Karnell, Yoshikazu Murase

With currency fluctuations and a historically cautious approach to real estate, Japanese institutional investors face a unique set of challenges and opportunities. Many remain under-allocated to real estate, but with global markets evolving, will they increase exposure? How are they navigating the yen’s volatility and assessing overseas opportunities amid high hedging costs? This panel unpacks the strategies Japan’s leading LPs are using to deploy capital, manage risk, and find value in a rapidly shifting investment landscape.
