LONDON (Daily Dunya) In a recent survey of property ownership in London, it has been revealed that Qatari investors own more property in the capital than the Mayor of Londons office and three times more than the Queen.
The report published by The Telegraph and compiled by research firm Datscha says that Canary Wharf Group Investment Holdings, which is co-owned by Qatar Holdings, part of the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) and American investment group Brookfield, is the capitals largest property owner, with almost 21.5m sq ft of space on its books.
