Attacks such as the one in a Munich shopping mall and at a nearby McDonald's Friday may lead mall owners to increase their security or even persuade global brands to focus expansion plans on the U.S. rather than Europe.

Retail industry experts also said that at this point big iconic brands don't appear to be targeted — it's just that many of them happen to be at public places that are vulnerable to attacks.
