www.inhandnetworks.de German property firms expect a boom in Frankfurt as financial businesses move activities and staff out of London in the wake of Brexit, an industry survey showed on Monday.

A majority of 72 percent of respondents believed finLTE Industrie Routerancial centre Frankfurt, rather than rivals Dublin, Paris, or Amsterdam, would gain the most from Britain leaving Ipsec Industrie Routerthe European Union, the study of 555 firms by consultants Ernst & Young (EY) found.

The German property market as a whole would get a boost from Brexit, 57 percent of those polled said, with large majorities expecting prices for commercial and residential properties to increase.

Brexit could be a further push to Germany’s once sleepy market, which in recent years has seen prices begin to rise more steeply.

Britain’s June 23 vote to quit the EU has afflicted the powerful London financial sector with uncertainty.

With possibly years to wait until rules governing how UK businesses can trade with the EU are thrashed out, some are already looking to relocate activities that could be affected to cities inside the remaining 27 member countries.

Centrally-located Frankfurt is seen as having an advantage over European competitors jostling for business fleeing London, as it already hosts the European Central Bank and many private-sector banks.

Meanwhile, 14 percent of firms said they were already planning to reduce activities in the UK.
