Nature of Dispute<\/h3>\n
\n

Disputes arising from commercial leases can involve alleged breaches of lease agreements, possible termination of leases and rental increases. Often times, clauses may be difficult to understand, leading to disagreements or misunderstandings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How can we help<\/h3>\n
\n

On 26 June 2020, key representatives from Singapore\u2019s landlord and tenant communities, together with industry experts, formed the Fair Tenancy Pro Tem Committee in a bid to strengthen collaboration and increase the vibrancy and competitiveness of Singapore\u2019s retail, food & beverage (F&B) and lifestyle sectors. The result is an industry-led Code of Conduct for Leasing of Retail Premises in Singapore (\u201cCode\u201d) based on the principles of transparency, reciprocity and sustainability.<\/p>\n

On 3 May 2021, key representatives from Singapore\u2019s landlord and tenant communities, together with industry experts formed the Fair Tenancy Industry Committee (FTIC) to be the custodian of the Code and address matters related to retail lease agreements.<\/p>\n

The FTIC has partnered with SMC to ensure that there will be timely resolution of dispute over matters covered under the Code at a reasonable cost. In the event that a dispute relating to non-compliance with the Code arises after the lease agreement is signed, either party may escalate the matter to SMC. Once escalated, both parties must approach SMC and shall comply with the resolutions of the SMC.<\/p>\n

All cases must go through the Scheme Mediation before they can proceed to Scheme Adjudication<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
