Demand for investment property and offices in Central London is still outstripping supply, principally because the investment market of Central London still remains the number one destination for overseas money.  Offices in the City still prime focus

One of the largest hedge funds, Brevan Howard, is rumoured to be seeking new offices in St James and it is thought by Morgan Pryce, the London commercial property agent, that the cost of leases may increase as a result.  The new offices will replace their cheaper office on Baker Street, but the primary role of the move is to provide suitable office space for Brevan Howard employees who no longer want to live in Geneva.
