Singapore ranked third most active in Asia Pacific investments

China remained the most liquid market in Asia Pacific in 4Q 2010, accounting up to 50% of the activities in the region.

Across the region activity in Q4 was lower in all countries apart from China, Singapore and Thailand, according to DTZ Research's Investment Market Update. While China only saw a small increase of 3% it still made up 50% of all the activity in the region. Singapore with an increase of 99% and Thailand with an increase of over 2000% witnessed substantial increases in investment activity.

Transactions in Singapore doubled helped by a major cross-border deal involving the German fund Deka who purchased Chevron House in Raffles Place for US$419m and the sale of two thirds of the Marina Bay Financial Centre to Suntec REIT and K-REIT Asia both from Singapore for over US$1bn each.

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.
