Since 2012, REF has been helping investors with market research, project due diligence, and strategy development. This has ranged from detailed assessments and estimates on distressed developers' project portfolios to market due diligence on specific projects to macro-level questions linked to demand for commodities. The unique combination of the housing markets and developer data from data partner China Index Academy in Beijing, primary research, and technology-powered alternative data collection from public sources result in a valuable content set used in REF analytics and reports.

Once upon a time there was a real estate developer which IPOed in Hong Kong (IPOed in late 2012) which had a habit of releasing a short statement every month in the first 6-12 days, reporting "Unaudited Operating Statistics for Month Year".In that statement it reported on the contracted sales results of the previous month in currency terms and in Gross Floor Area, and the results of the year-to-date in the same way. In the January release, full-year results were generally presented. An example…

In order to understand the drivers of performance among EM active managers, we create a portfolio based on the aggregated holdings of 134 global emerging market equity funds. Fund holdings and stock performance are recorded on a monthly basis and annualised to provide absolute and relative performance figures for the year.We find that underweights positions in 'Big Tech' were a key driver of relative underperformance on the year. Sound stock selection in financial stocks generated positive relative returns, and Tencent was the must-have position for 2017.

Today's NBS house price data for 70 major cities in December shows an acceleration of price growth year-on-year, which is in contrast to the slowdown trend that had persisted since November 2016. It differs from the expectations of a continued gradual cooling, although that's just a single data point so far, too early to consider it a reversal of a trend yet.
