If Germans had to decide on a sustainable investment and retirement provision, most would choose real estate. This is the result of a recent population survey commissioned by Pangea Life from the market research institute YouGov. Respondents had to decide whether they were most likely to invest in real estate, energy or technology. 26 percent opted for real estate, 24 percent for energy and 19 percent for technology.
"Sustainable living and the climate-neutral future of our cities are issues that concern people in view of the housing shortage, constantly rising rents and the increasingly visible effects of climate change in our cities," says Daniel Regensburger, Managing Director of Pangaea Life. It is therefore not surprising that people would like to contribute to solving these challenges themselves by investing in sustainable real estate and see real estate as a secure and promising investment.
The study also shows that respondents obtain information about sustainable investments and retirement provision in roughly equal proportions from friends, family and acquaintances (25%), investment advisors and insurance brokers (25%), business and financial magazines (24%) and product tests and ratings (22%). A total of 2,144 people aged 18 and over were surveyed online between March 25 and 18 for the population survey.
