London's property market could receive an influx of capital from Qatari investors after Arab countries cut diplomatic ties to Qatar, said John Collier-Wright, managing director at Colliers International. Reduced cross-border investment between Qatar and other Arab states, coupled with higher levels of liquidity from rising oil prices, will encourage Qatari investors to move funds into UK property, he added. Arab countries' allegations that Qatar supports terrorism in the Gulf region will likely trigger further outward capital flows, commented Andrew Thomas, director and head of international capital markets at JR Capital.
