German open‐ended property fund shows that a strategic management of
property investment is indispensable. Suggests that it is possible and
fruitful to adapt the instruments for strategic management used by
industrial companies to fit the needs of property companies (such as the
five‐forces model and the value chain developed by Porter, the strategic
portfolio analysis developed by McKinsey, etc.). In the long‐term
perspective of institutional investors, dynamic factors such as use,
flexibility, productivity and competitive advantages play a much more
important role. These thoughts have led to the need to build an
operational model for the analysis and “strategic” valuation of property
portfolios. This kind of portfolio approach emerges as an effective and
flexible instrument for identifying and visualizing strategic
development potentials and problem configurations within the assets of
open‐ended property funds and other institutional investors.
