Investment strategies of insurance companies can significantly influence conditions of development of a broad-understood capital market due to the capital these actors dispose. Heterogeneity of insurance companies' activities causes their different investment priorities. The authors decided to investigate what investment strategies, in respect to investments in the real estate market, are chosen by actors belonging to the same capital group, but operating in different countries. Research problem concerned not only the perception of investment in real estate but also the potential of national the real estate market. The authors compared investment strategies carried out by insurance companies in the United Kingdom, Germany and Poland and an assessment of the potential of real estate markets in these countries.
