    An Assessment of Legal Changes on Reits Performance in the Canadian and South African Markets.
    (2023) Ngomoloya, Fiona
    This research paper examines the relationship between legal factors and Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) performance in the contexts of Canada and South Africa. Through an in-depth exploration of regulatory frameworks, tax implications, and governance requirements, this study aims to uncover how legal variables contribute to the operational dynamics and financial outcomes of REITs in these two distinct markets. Drawing on qualitative data collected from expert interviews, regulatory documents, and financial reports, the research employs thematic analysis to identify key legal factors that influence REIT performance and investor sentiments in each country. By contrasting the regulatory environments, tax structures, and market trends in Canada and South Africa, this study not only illuminates the multifaceted impact of legal factors but also provides insights into potential strategies for enhancing REIT performance and sustainability in diverse global contexts. The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and industry stakeholders seeking to optimize legal frameworks for REITs and foster a conducive environment for real estate investment in Canada, South Africa, as well as new REIT markets in Africa.
