What is the Global Research Gateway?
The Global Research Gateway is the public 'window' into CBRE Research, providing a single point of access for presenting research resources, outputs, tools and regional research websites across the globe. It also enables our users to search for, and retrieve, our publicly available research reports, and other outputs, via a powerful search interface.

Why do I have to register to view CBRE Research and what are the benefits?
Requiring registrations allows us to safeguard our knowledge and serve our users better, by offering additional services to those users who register. Requiring registration also enables us to track usage, which allows us to evaluate which outputs are most read by our users. Understanding the preferences of our users allows us to cater our future outputs and our priorities to the topics and outputs that are most valuable to our users. As such, tracking usage will allow us to direct our efforts more closely to topics of interest to our clients.
Once registered, you may directly download/view CBRE Research on subsequent visits to the GRG, via the use of cookies*. The additional benefits gained by registering include: allowing you to save search criteria and email-alerts. Registering also grants you a Global Research Gateway account or MyGateway area, where a list of My Reports is displayed showing your preferred outputs, as set in your email alerts.
Can I access the Global Research Gateway without registering?
We require all users to register in order to view our research.
However, if you are a CBRE client you may still receive mailings from us containing Research outputs. These outputs can be opened and downloaded, without first registering/logging in, but such outputs will be accessible only for a limited time. Such time limits vary from output to output.
Pop-up blocking
The most common cause for our market reports not opening is that your local web browser has a 'pop-up blocker' enabled. This is a standard feature which prevents unwanted pop-up windows opening. As our pdf reports do open in a new window, we recommend that you check your local browser's settings. Read more in the links below:
- Firefox
- Safari

How do I find CBRE Research outputs?
The Global Research Gateway contains a powerful Search Engine, which has been custom built to deliver accurate results. There is a Quick Search, where you may search by entering free text keywords/locations/sectors. You may also add a sector limiter by clicking in the one of the Limit to boxes, located underneath the Quick Search box.
An Expanded Search allows you to build a detailed search, by combining coverage selections of pan-regional and pan-global coverage, as well as specific regions/ countries/ markets with locations, sectors, keywords. Pan-coverage reports may be retrieved by ticking the appropriate Global and Pan Regional Coverage box, adjacent to the map in Expanded Search. If you tick one of these coverage boxes the coverage option(s), which you have selected, will populate in the Select Select Pan-Region/Country search box below. For example, ticking Pan EMEA wide reports, will place Pan EMEA into the Select Pan-Region/Country field and once Search is clicked, Pan EMEA reports will be retrieved.
