Great Portland Estates prepares for recovery

Great Portland Estates, the London property investor, is positioning itself for a recovery in the market through a series of deals and new schemes, including one of the first debt restructuring development arrangements.

The company will buy and develop two West End schemes for £10m ($17m) under an innovative arrangement with Istithmar, the previous owner, and its bank Eurohypo that will give it the first of any profits, and a share of additional money above a limit.

Great Portland Estates said that it had a 2.6m sq ft development pipeline ready for the market recovery, including the new West End acquisition, Marcol House, which will be redeveloped in the first half of 2010.

  6. A managerial accounting strategy focusing on maintaining efficient levels of both components of working capital, current assets and current liabilities, in respect to each other. Working capital management ensures a company has sufficient cash flow in order to meet its short-term debt obligations and operating expenses.
