Notes how the forthcoming International Accounting Standards are making UK businesses more aware of the management of their property. The two that are particularly relevant for the corporate occupier are Financial Reporting Standards 12 and International Accounting Standards 17. Also mentions the annual Corporate Occupiers report produced by FraserCRE which looks at the attitudes and opinions of UK corporate occupiers. This found that 63% of businesses would like to shed space and 57% of respondents would be prepared to sacrifice security of tenure for more flexible leases.
