UK's Savills expects return-to-office real estate boost
(Reuters) -Global real estate company Savills on Thursday said that efforts to get employees back into offices would boost transaction volumes in 2025, after annual profit only just topped expectations. "Savills has been on the downward move for months, and it just seems like the shares are in need of a turnaround plan, and the report has not really delivered it," said Chris Beauchamp, chief market analyst at online trading platform IG. Savills has been grappling with weakness in China and delays to some transactions in North America, while bond market turbulence earlier this year dented investor sentiment.
