We continue the series of articles from P.V.
Dear readers! We present to your attention the first issue of the LOGISTICS journal in 2025. First of all, we would like to draw readers' attention to our new partner R1 Development, a development company that creates a new generation environment and specializes in the construction of industrial, logistics, commercial and residential real estate. One of the projects of R1 Development is the Druzhba industrial park network.
Dear readers! We present to your attention the final issue of the LOGISTICS journal in 2024. We have tried to make it rich and interesting. Today, many Russian companies operate under strict sanctions restrictions, which force them to reorient logistics flows. One of the possible solutions to this problem may be the Russia – Mongolia – China economic corridor. Details can be found in the article by Alexandra Kazunina.

Europe’s presence can be strongly felt in a ranking of markets which attract the most real estate investment compared to their relative economic size, with 12 of the top 30 located in the region, according to JLL’s Investment Intensity Index.
Oslo (1) tops the Index as a small but highly sought-after market thanks to active domestic investors. London, in second position globally, remains a favoured investment destination. Munich (3) and Edinburgh (4) round off the global top four.
European cities are seen as a safe-haven for investment dollars and continue to attract investor demand as they demonstrate high levels of transparency and sustainability together with robust technology, infrastructure and liveability credentials.
“Significant capital continues to target real estate, and Europe’s New World Cities – mid-sized markets which specialise in high-tech and high-value activities, such as Berlin and Stockholm – sit high on the wish lists of global investors,” says Jeremy Kelly, director in global research, JLL. “The attractiveness of these smaller markets in transparent economies is evident, with the contribution of New World Cities to global investment volumes rising from 12% in 2006 to 23% in 2016, overtaking the share of global investment into the ‘Big 6’ markets of New York, London, Paris, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore.”
Elsewhere in the top 30, the Nordic cities feature strongly. After Oslo (1), neighbouring Scandinavian capitals Copenhagen (10) and Stockholm (13) also appear.
Other favoured New World Cities in Europe include Frankfurt (6), Dublin (7), Geneva (17), Amsterdam (19) and Berlin (24).
Of the global top 30, Europe and North America dominate. There are four cities from the Asia Pacific region, although the balance is starting to shift, as investors target its dynamic cities.
Moscow currently ranks 91st overall in the Investment Intensity Index. “While it is among the top 50 markets globally for total direct real estate investment volumes over the last three years, it is also the 6th largest urban economy in the world, which means there is substantial room for growth in order for investment volumes to match its economic importance.” – Vladimir Pantyushin, Head of Research, JLL, Russia & CIS, says. – “Moscow’s ranking fell to 120th during 2015 following two quiet years in 2014-2015. Its rank has subsequently risen as investment volumes increased over the last year. If this performance is maintained Moscow’s position should continue to rise.”
Cross-border investment
European cities also dominate a ranking of the markets which attract the most cross-border investment compared to their economic size, comprising 10 of the top 12 in the Index. London (1) retains its position as the world’s most active cross-border market, followed by Edinburgh (2), Frankfurt (3), Munich (4), Dublin (5), Amsterdam (6), Paris (8), Prague (9), Warsaw (11) and Berlin (12).
“New World Cities now account for over one-fifth of global cross-border activity, up from 14% 10 years ago and equal to that registered in the ‘Big 6’.” added Kelly. “European New World Cities are attractive to a broad range of global investors due to their appealing combination of transparency, stability and sustainability.”
