About Globalworth:
Globalworth Real Estate Investments Ltd is a real estate investment company founded by real estate investor and developer Ioannis Papalekas to take advantage of investment opportunities in Romania and the broader SEE and CEE regions. The company is Guernsey incorporated and registered as a closed-ended collective investment scheme by the Guernsey FSC. The Company's shares were admitted to trading on AIM in July 2013.
The Romanian market offers an attractive real estate investment proposition in the medium-to-long term. Globalworth believes that global investor capital flows will gradually move from markets considered as "safe havens" to more peripheral markets such as Romania and the broader SEE and CEE regions in search of higher yielding investments. As a result, Romania and the broader SEE and CEE regions should, in due course, become more attractive destinations for a wide investor audience. Globalworth anticipates holding an early mover advantage in these markets and benefitting from this gradual shift in investor sentiment.
