Office market showed mixed signals in Q1

Capital values edge higher even as leasing demand weakens across office segments.

Office rents in Singapore fell by 0.2% in the first quarter (Q1), reversing a 0.4% increase in the previous quarter, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).

Prices rose by 0.2% over the same period, reversing a 0.7% decline in the previous quarter.

The supply pipeline for office space stood at about 867,000 square metres of gross floor area as at end-Q1 2026, unchanged from the previous quarter.

Total stock increased by 8,000 square metres of net lettable area, compared with a decline of 7,000 square metres in the previous quarter.

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.
