Singapore can be a global REIT listing hub

Singapore has emerged as Asia’s preferred listing location for global real estate investment trusts (REITs) in recent years, thanks to its attractive tax environment, established regulatory framework, strong corporate governance standards, and a large pool of institutional and private capital.

Watch the video below as Jonathan Denis-Jacob, Associate Director for Consulting & Advisory services in Singapore shares a snapshot of the S-REIT landscape and highlights which markets offer potential opportunities for REIT portfolio growth in the future.
