ESR Group receives no objection letter from Shanghai Stock Exchange for logistics REIT spin-off

The CSRC has also approved the registration of the REIT.

ESR Group has received a no objection letter from the Shanghai Stock Exchange, advancing its plan to spin off its logistics assets into a real estate investment trust (REIT).

The move aims to create a publicly offered infrastructure securities investment fund, as outlined in announcements dating back to December 2022.

Additionally, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) has approved the registration of the REIT.

Upon completion of the spin-off, ESR Group's ownership in the project company will reduce significantly from 100% to 34%, leading to the deconsolidation of the project company from the group’s consolidated financial statements.

Based on current information, the asset disposal is expected to meet the criteria of a discloseable transaction under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules, with the applicable percentage ratio falling between 5% and 25%.

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.
