Chris Grigg, chief executive said: “We’ve had a good start to the year, making real progress against the priorities set out at our results in May in what are strong occupational and investment markets. In Retail, our operational metrics remain strong and we continue to recycle capital by selling selected mature assets and investing into our existing portfolio. In Offices, we’re pleased with the deals we’ve done at The Leadenhall Building and in the supply constrained City market we’re positive about our prospects on the remaining space.
