Reports European GDP grew above trend in 2007. Expects 2.5% growth for the Eurozone in 2007, falling to 2.1% in 2008. Suggests that the US subprime crisis has spread to Europe, creating market uncertainty and a slowdown in commercial property investment activity, particularly in the UK. Finds Eurozone inflation increased sharply in the second half of 2007, leaving the European Central Bank with little opportunity to cut interest rates. Reports robust occupier markets, with falling vacancy rates and rising rents in several major European office markets.
