520 _aLooks at the signs of private investment interest in areas of low demand, which are the target of the government market renewal programme (Pathfinders). Market renewal fund money can be used to take the edge off the risk that worries the private sector. Under-priced markets exist that can represent a significant investment opportunity. Lack of market information and a suitable market mechanism have inhibited investment in this area. Lenders are becoming re-engaged with the low-demand areas. However, prospective investors may demand a bigger say in the provision of local services before risking their money in these areas.
