Data centre investment offers a strong yield compared to many other asset classes for real estate investors with the right platform and appetite. Thanks to the global exponential growth in internet traffic and data centre workloads, we are likely to see increased liquidity in this sector, with the investment trend continuing to grow over the coming years. At Allen & Overy, we have developed a detailed legal data centre checklist for our clients covering the range of commercial drivers which are unique to data centre transactions.
