According to an announcement, the consideration price of the property is at $73.8m. Cache acquired the property in April 2010 for $69.5m.

"The Proposed Divestment provides Cache with the opportunity to recycle its capital in line with the Manager’s portfolio rebalancing and growth strategy to create debt headroom and reinvest capital into higher performing assets with stronger property fundamentals," it added.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
