Geringer Leerstand und moderate Mieten prägen den Büromarkt.<br />
The office market is characterised by low vacancy level<br />
and moderate rent.<br />
varying terms. “We let out many offices, day offices and<br />
conference rooms. We also receive requests from asso -<br />
ciations and management boards that would like to use<br />
our Business Center. Thus, all in all, there is a slight shift from<br />
the manufacturing sector, which still is of great importance<br />
for the region, to service providers and multi-national<br />
enterprises that are in search of a location in <strong>Bonn</strong>“, Wilfried<br />
Thünker underscores, who has been successful for more<br />
than 30 years with his Business Center. Everything added up,<br />
there are about 4,500 companies offering services that are<br />
related to real estate in <strong>Bonn</strong> and the Rhein-<strong>Sieg</strong> district.<br />
Thus this industry stands for about eight per centof the<br />
almost 53,000 Chamber of Industry and Commerce com -<br />
panies in <strong>Bonn</strong>/Rhein-<strong>Sieg</strong>. Services that are directly linked<br />
to real estate, such as real estate agents, administrators and<br />
facility manager are highly in demand in the region. In<br />
addition to this, industry-related service providers such as<br />
security services and the building cleaning trade benefit<br />
from the booming market.<br />
Better safe than sorry: well-insured is half the battle<br />
Insurance protection is required for those wishing to insure<br />
their office building against dangers such as burglary, fire or<br />
severe storms, and who desire to be insured against the<br />
financial risks that are associated with this. SachSchutz of<br />
Zurich Versicherung (Zurich Insurance) offers business<br />
customers customised solutions in a flexible building block<br />
system. The <strong>Bonn</strong>/Rhein-<strong>Sieg</strong> insurance location can look<br />
back at a long tradition. In this regard, the German Herold<br />
was integrated in Zurich Versicherung in 2002, which today<br />
has its German headquarters in <strong>Bonn</strong>. 2344 insurance<br />
brokers are currently registered in the Chamber of Industry<br />
and Commerce <strong>Bonn</strong>/Rhein-<strong>Sieg</strong> district – among these are<br />
835 independent brokers that are directly registered at the<br />
Chamber of Industry and Commerce. In the area of the<br />
commercial customers, the insurance industry profits from<br />
a healthy medium-sized business sector that has a focal<br />
point on the service industry sector.
