RCA's Steve Williams To Speak at Inaugural RICS Asia Valuation Conference 2011
Gamut News reports: In a recent report published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), the industry-leading organization stated that, “The impact of urban climate change could be reduced by as much as 2.5°c, by increasing the amount of green space in town and cities... RICS would like to see the Government, local authorities, land owners and developers create and safeguard existing green spaces, and pay greater attention to the growing problem of urban climate change. In order to allow for this the adoption of green infrastructure strategies, that have long term environmental and economic benefits, should be factored into development plans.” And much continues to be made of an additional point made by RICS: “Properties benefitting from established or proposed green infrastructure may show increases to tangible or intangible values.”
Using that report as a basis for a larger conversation on the subject, RICS Asia will host the inaugural RICS Asia Valuation Conference 2011 on June 16, 2011 in Beijing. Former RICS President and Real Capital Analytics Global Advisor Steve Williams will be attending the event, and delivering a speech on the topic of “Tracking Cross-Border Real Estate Capital Flows into and out of Asia.”
