Positioned for new heights

Over the past three years, the global REIT market has faced significant challenges due to rising interest rates and economic uncertainties. Despite these hurdles, S-REITs have demonstrated resilience and adaptability.

In Hong Kong, the REIT market has struggled with severe declines in market capitalisation, driven by regional economic shifts and regulatory pressures. The property crisis in China and the exit of global financial firms have further exacerbated these challenges.

China, on the other hand, has seen rapid growth in its REIT market since its introduction in 2020. The expansion of REITs to include new asset classes such as renewable energy and retail properties has attracted significant investor interest, leading to a substantial increase in market capitalisation.

India's REIT market, though relatively young, has shown impressive growth. The introduction of new REIT classes and regulatory changes aimed at increasing accessibility have spurred investor interest and market expansion.

Given these developments, how does Singapore's REIT market compare to its counterparts? What will the sectoral outlook be like for data centre, healthcare, retail, hospitality, office and industrial REITs in Singapore? And ultimately, what does the future hold for S-REITs in this evolving landscape?
