Analyst remains neutral on S-Reits amidst global financial situation

There may be tighter financial conditions in the US due to interbank rates.

Those planning to invest in Singapore REITs should be neutral as the global financial market remains uncertain, said Maybank.

“However, US short-term interbank rates are higher and credit spreads are wider from last week. US investment grade and high yield credit default swap spreads widened 7.8bp and 36.4bp,respectively. Singapore has seen similar moves, albeit on a smaller scale,” it said.

According to the bank, the top recommended S-Reits are CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust, Frasers Centrepoint Trust, ESR Logos REIT, Mapletree Industrial Trust, CDL Hospitality Trust, CapitaLand Ascott REIT, and Far East Hospitality Trust.

It suggested that fall in yields is good for this segment and that industrial and hospitality sub-sectors are preferred.

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.
