RECENT TRENDS
• Economic: In April 2012, the unemployment rate reached 25.5%, a 3.3% y-o-y
increase. The Dinar (RSD) started to recover In June 2012 due to a regulation
change of the bank reserve fund.
• Office: Demand for office space in Belgrade slowed in H1 2012 evidenced by the
number of inquires recorded by Colliers International. Compared to H2 2011,
Belgrade net office rents remained unchanged in H1 2012.
• Retail: Belgrade’s retail market was uneventful, however the retail market in
secondary cities showed signs of movement as a few retail projects were delivered
in H1 2012. With limited supply of international shopping centres in Belgrade, rents
continued to be landlord driven, starting at high initial values.
• Residential: The Belgrade residential market delivered 6,416 residential
apartments, marking an increase of 13% on an annual basis compared to 2010.
NMIC official data indicated the total number of apartments purchased by loans in
H1 2012 decreased 36% in comparison to H1 2011.
MARKET PROGNOSIS
• Economic: Serbia’s National Bank projected moderate GDP growth of 0.5% on an
annual basis, by the end of 2012. Some forecasts indicate that the Dinar should
remain stable against the Euro, standing at the mid-year rate of 116.
• Office: Colliers forecast is that Belgrade office rents will stabilize in H2 2012 with
the possibility of a modest increase.
• Retail: Rent levels should remain stable over the next six months in both prime high
street areas as well as in western-style shopping centres.
• Residential: Sales and rent levels should remain stable over the next six months,
with the possibility of a modest decrease in H2 2012.

RESEARCH & FORECAST REPORT | MID-YEAR 2012 | SERBIA | ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
SUMMARY
• Following a downward trend since May 2011, the inflation rate dropped from 14.7%
to 2.3% in April 2012, the lowest rate in the past twelve months. In June 2012, y-o-y
inflation reached 5.5%, a figure within the National Bank’s target of 4.2% (+/- 1.5%).
The inflation rate in Q2 2012 trended upward due to growth in food, fruit and oil
prices.
• After a strong currency depreciation trend in May 2012, the Dinar (RSD) showed
signs of a modest recovery due to regulation changes in the mandatory reserve
levels of banks as well as a modest stabilization in the Euro-zone.
• As of H1 2012, the unemployment rate reached 25.5%, a 3.3% y-o-y increase.
• After achieving 1.6% economic growth in 2011, GDP trended down by -1.3% due to
a sharp decline in industrial production and the economic slowdown of the
Eurozone. Total industrial activity decreased by 4.2% in H1 2012 in comparison to
the same period in 2011.
• At the end of H1 2012, however, external trade in Serbia increased by 3.8%
compared to H1 2011. Major Serbian foreign trade partners in export include
Germany, Italy, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Russian Federation.
• The average net salary (excluding tax and contributions) in Serbia was
approximately €366 as of June 2012. According to official data from the Statistical
Office, in H1 2012 the average net salary in Serbia increased 5.8% in real terms and
10.5% in nominal terms.
PROGNOSIS
• The National Bank of Serbia projects inflation will accelerate on an annual basis as
of May 2012 due to the beginning of the new agricultural season which will increase
both regulated and imported food prices. The primary disinflationary factor will be
low aggregate demand. Food and regulatory prices, as well as international
conditions will remain the dominant risk factors affecting inflation projections.
• Some forecasts indicate that the Dinar should remain stable against the Euro,
standing at the mid-year rate of 116.
• By the end of 2012, Serbia’s National Bank projects a moderate 0.5% GDP growth
on an annual basis.
• Total net FDI inflows to Serbia in H2 2012 will amount to €1 billion, or 3.1% of GDP.

OVERVIEW
• H1 2012 was not a period of dynamic retail development in Belgrade. However,
several secondary cities in Serbia witnessed the delivery of a few new retail
developments.
• According to official data from the Statistics Office of the Republic of Serbia, retail
trade turnover increased 5.1% in current prices and decreased 0.9% in constant
prices in H1 2012, in comparison to the same period in 2011.
SUPPLY
• In light of challenging economic conditions in Belgrade, H1 2012 marked a period of
stagnation in terms of new shopping centre developments. There were no changes
in shopping centre stock, so the total gross leasable area remained at the same
level of 168,000 m2 .
• The retail market in secondary cities showed signs of movement as few retail
projects were delivered in H1 2012.
• At the end of Q1 2012, the Kragujevac retail market delivered its first project out of
four Plaza Centre projects in Serbia. The Kragujevac Plaza with an area of 22,000
m2 was the first western-style shopping centre outside of Belgrade. This project
diversified the retail offer and brought international brands to Kragujevac.
• At the beginning of Q2 2012, the Indjija retail market opened the first phase of the
Fashion House Outlet with a gross leasable area of 15,000 m2. This is an
investment by Black Oak Developments. An additional 15,000 m2 was announced to
be delivered through two more phases by the end of 2016.
• In the course of further development of the Roda Cash and Carry network, Valjevo
saw the official opening of the Roda Cash and Carry hypermarket (3,400 m2 GBA) in
June 2012.
DEMAND
• Even though Belgrade only has two western-type shopping malls, retailers
continued to show interest in entering and expanding in the capital’s retail market. In
H1 2012, C&A entered the market in the Usce shopping mall.
• After the success of the retail project in Pancevo, retailers started to explore
secondary cities for future expansion.
• Belgrade’s prime high streets remained one of the most favorable locations for
retailers. At the end of Q1 2012, Knez Mihailova, the main pedestrian street,
introduced the fashion brand, New Look, to the Serbian market.
RENTS AND VACANCY
• In H1 2012, Belgrade’s prime high street rents were stable. In H1 2012, primary high
streets rents ranged from €40-120 m2/month, with the highest rents recorded in
locations such as Kneza Mihaila Street in Belgrade. Secondary retail areas
registered rental levels between €15-40 m2/month whereas peripheral retail areas
ranged between €5-10 m2/month.
• With limited international style shopping centre supply in Belgrade, rents continued
to be landlord driven in H1 2012 and started at high initial values. Delta City and
Usce’s rents stayed the same as 2011, ranging from €25-70 m2/month.
• High demand for retail space coupled with a shortage of quality retail space in the
Belgrade market resulted in lower vacancy rates in H1 2012. Vacancy levels in the
Belgrade prime high streets hovered between 5-7%, while western style shopping
centers recorded vacancy levels closer to zero percent.

COLLIERS RESEARCH
Colliers Research Services Group is recognized as a knowledge leader in the commercial
real estate industry, providing clients with valuable market intelligence to support business
decisions. Colliers research analysts provide multi-level support across all property types,
ranging from data collection to comprehensive market analysis.
Across the Eastern European region of EMEA, Colliers researchers regularly collect and
update data on key real estate metrics, set to consistent definitions bringing greater
transparency and reliability to our real estate market analysis in the region. In most Eastern
European markets, the office definitions used are consistent with those set out by the CEE
Research Forum – an umbrella group, of which Colliers is a founding member. Definitions of
the key metrics used in our regular reports are highlighted below.
KEY METRIC DEFINITIONS
• Prime Net Initial Yield: The yield an investor is prepared to pay to buy a Grade A building,
fully-let to high quality tenants at an open market rental value in a prime location. Lease
terms should be commensurate with the market. As a calculation Net initial yield = First
years’ net income/purchase price (prior to deducting fees and taxes)
• Prime Headline Rent: Represents the top open-market tier of rent that could be expected
for a unit of standard size commensurate with demand, of the highest quality and
specification in the best location in the market at the survey date. This should reflect the
level at which relevant transactions are being completed at the time but need not be exactly
identical to any of them, particularly if deal flow is very limited or made up of unusual one-
off deals. If there are no relevant transactions during the survey period, the quoted figure
will be more hypothetical, based on expert opinion of market conditions. The figure
excludes service charges, taxes, and tenant incentives.
• Total Occupational Market Activity (Take-up): Total Occupational Market Activity is the
total floor space known to have been let or sold as one of the following activity types during
the survey period: Pre-let, New Occupation/Lease, Renewal/Renegotiation, Expansion,
Sub-lease and Sale & Leaseback.
• Net Take-up: Net Take-up represents the sum of all Total Occupational Market Activity
categories which represent a net increase in demand for space. This would only include the
following activity types: Pre-lets, New Occupation/lease, Expansion
• Total Competitive Stock - Offices: Includes the gross leasable floor space in all A and B
class buildings, including owner-occupied buildings but excluding government owned
properties. Ancillary office space is only included if it can be reasonably used independently
of the primary use of the building in which it is located.
• Total Competitive Stock - Industrial: Includes the gross leasable floor space in all A and
B class buildings, including speculative, Build to suit and owner-occupied stock. Other
reference points include that the building must be heated and have a clear usable height
minimum of 6metres. This includes both warehouse (500m2+)& bulk space (10,000m2+).
• Total Competitive Stock – Retail Shopping Centres: Split into two categories ‘Traditional
& Specialised’ as per ICSC definitions. Traditional includes retail properties that are
planned, built and managed as a single entity, comprising units and “communal” areas with
a minimum gross leasable area (GLA) of 5,000 square metres. Specialised shopping
centres includes Retail Parks, Factory Outlet Centres and Theme-Oriented Centres -
specific, purpose-built retail schemes that are typically open-air with a minimum gross
leasable area (GLA) of 5,000 m2.
• Space Under Active Construction: Represents the total amount of gross leasable floor
space of properties where construction has commenced on a new development or where a
major refurbishment/renovation is ongoing at the survey date.
• Vacant Space: The total gross leasable floor space in existing properties that meet the
Competitive Stock definition, which is physically vacant and being actively marketed at the
survey date. Space should be available for immediate occupation.
• Total Availability: Total Availability is a calculation derived from the combination of total
vacant space + total available speculative developments, (which exclude the total volume
of pre-let or sold space under construction) during the survey period.
