The goal of APREA’s advocacy in China is to help grow Chinese real estate as an attractive investment asset class by bringing the world's best thinking on real estate policy and regulatory frameworks to China for adaption for Chinese circumstances.
The current principal focus of APREA’s advocacy in China is to help introduce a state-of-the-art Chinese REIT code that covers all real asset sectors and, ultimately, provide tax flow-through benefits. The China Advocacy Committee will contribute to improve APREA’s capacity to engage with regulators and respond to technical issues (including transition rules, the tax treatment of REITs, listing rules, treatment of SPVs in REIT funds, gearing limits, development rules, etc.).
