"The Frankfurt market is currently at the low point of its cycle due to a broad-based restructuring of its banking sector, and we feel it offers excellent potential for growth," says Yvon Tessier, SITQ's senior vice president of investments. "Beyond that, the quality of the tenants and the long-term leases allow us to look at the future with a lot of confidence."

With 2 million people, Frankfurt is the fifth largest city in Germany and the fourth largest financial center in the world behind London, New York and Tokyo. Frankfurt is home to the European Central Bank, the head offices of 240 German and foreign banks and the largest of Germany's stock exchanges.
