The story of Asia Pacific Real Assets Association (APREA) began in 2005 with a group of enthusiastic industry leaders aiming to set the tone and identify real estate trends impactful to the Asia Pacific region. With key focuses on advocacy, knowledge sharing and connecting like-minded decision-makers, APREA is well-established as a leading voice and go-to resource in the industry.
APREA has evolved to be at the forefront of securitized real assets sector and a one-of-its-kind community of change-makers where all voices are heard, deliberated, and envisioned. It offers a sophisticated platform that can effectively address key policy issues affecting real assets and capital markets, as well as decipher global intelligence for regional and local benefits. The members of APREA are tightly connected with one another, as well as with regulatory bodies and industry experts.
With the ability to swiftly adapt to the ever-changing industry landscape, APREA has built a diverse community of professional leaders and trendsetters from top publicly-held and privately-owned real assets ownership, development, and management firms. Having established a leading presence and think-tank status within the industry, our community continues to drive breakthroughs and transform the real assets sector within Asia Pacific.
From Real Estate to Real Assets
APREA's journey began with full coverage of the securitised real estate arena and primarily focused on the REIT regimes' establishment. With the dynamic transformation of the industry over the past decade, APREA has evolved to cover more grounds to serve the needs of the growing real assets sector.
Real assets include physical or tangible property that can generate passive income streams via leases, mortgages and other covenants, or by the sale of assets. Two common forms of real assets include income-producing real estate and infrastructure.
The APREA Chapters
As a professional body that genuinely represents Asia Pacific’s interests and opportunities, and at the same time understands all push and pull growth factors, the APREA regional chapters are led by profound leaders at their respective regions. APREA’s members collectively own and manage over US$5 trillion in real assets across the Asia Pacific region.
Industry Partners
APREA takes pride in its recognition as a trendsetter in both the developed and developing Asia Pacific markets.
