Chart of the Day: Office supply glut expected to subside starting next year

Around 1.7m sq ft of space will be available in 2018.

There is currently a supply glut in the office market, forcing and pressuring rents to go down. However, the oversupply is expected to slowly fade starting 2018, a report from RHB said.

For this year, the total space available sits around 3.1m sq ft, with 2.4m sq ft of space situated in the core CBD whilst 0.6m sq ft is decentralised.

For 2018, supply will go down to only 1.7m sq ft, with only 0.8m sq ft available in the core CBD.

It will further go down to 1.1m sq ft in 2019, with 0.6m sq ft of space located in the fringes of the CBD.

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.
