It would also attract institutional investors seeking exposure to the UK real estate debt market without the volatility of direct property ownership.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4528\" data-end=\"4771\">However, Fitch also cautioned that transparency, credit quality and underwriting standards must remain strong.
