The Regional Market Matrix rejects subjective economic forecasting — markets enter only when population density, institutional real estate vehicle availability, and [[co-location-anchors|anchor]] density meet structural thresholds measurable today. This framework defines which of MCorp's 8 target markets the [[co-location-intelligence-overview|co-location intelligence platform]] currently evaluates; scoring within each market follows the [[co-location-methodology|co-location methodology]] and the [[co-location-ranking-system|ranking system]].

## Selection criteria

Markets enter the matrix when they satisfy a set of structural requirements:

**Population density thresholds.** A target market must contain a sufficient concentration of population within defined catchment distances to support large-format retail at institutional scale. Markets that fail minimum density benchmarks are excluded regardless of macroeconomic forecasts.

**Institutional real estate vehicle equivalence.** The matrix targets markets where real estate investment structures equivalent to North American REITs exist — structures that enable institutional capital to hold real estate directly. In Mexico, this means FIBRAs (Fideicomisos de Infraestructura y Bienes Raíces). In Spain, SOCIMIs (Sociedades Anónimas Cotizadas de Inversión Inmobiliaria). These vehicle equivalents indicate that institutional capital has already made a structural commitment to a given market's real estate investment infrastructure.

**Anchor density validation.** The market must contain a qualifying density of primary and secondary co-location anchors, classified per the [[retail-brand-family-taxonomy|retail brand family taxonomy]]. A market without sufficient anchor presence at national-retailer scale cannot produce qualifying nodes under the co-location methodology.

## What the matrix excludes

The matrix explicitly excludes criteria that are forecasts rather than current measurements:

- GDP growth projections
- Consumer confidence surveys
- Currency appreciation forecasts
- Political risk ratings from analyst services

These inputs introduce subjective judgment and retrospective inaccuracy. A market qualifies based on what is measurable today — population, anchor presence, regulatory structure — not on what analysts predict tomorrow.

## Current market coverage

The matrix currently covers eight retail markets across North America and Europe. Each market is represented in the co-location intelligence platform at gis.woodfinegroup.com with a ranked index of qualifying nodes.
