Panel: European Housing Strategy: From Policy Frameworks to Investable Solutions

Europe is entering a new phase of housing policy and capital mobilisation. With the launch of the European Affordable Housing Plan and increasing alignment between EU institutions, national governments, and financial actors, housing is becoming not only a social priority but a strategic economic sector.

This panel explores how European housing strategy is evolving — from regulatory frameworks and public asset management to private capital engagement, valuation standards, and structured investment vehicles.

The discussion will address:

• How public real estate portfolios can be activated to support affordable and social housing objectives

• The role of institutional investors, asset managers, and state-owned platforms in scaling housing supply

• How valuation standards, risk assessment, and data-driven market intelligence influence housing finance

• How governance models can align public mission with financial sustainability

Bringing together leaders from public asset management, strategic advisory, valuation, and real estate federation leadership, the session will examine how Europe can move from policy intention to operational, bankable, and scalable housing solutions.

The conversation aims to bridge institutional strategy and market mechanisms — positioning housing not only as a social necessity, but as a structured long-term investment class aligned with European resilience and competitiveness.
