Listed real estate (including REITs): GPR/APREA Composite Index
Japan real estate continued to outperform all countries in Asia Pacific, against a backdrop of strong property fundamentals. New Zealand also remains on the investor radar, with its property markets showing promising signs of growth.
J-REITs and Thailand REITs were top performers in September and also on a trailing one-year basis. The J- REIT market will remain well supported, with the Bank of Japan buying J-REIT shares as part of its stimulus plan.
Singapore REITs have also been on the spotlight for their offshore expansion, buying a record US$2.7 billion of assets this year to date, thus making "them" the largest cross border spenders among REITs globally.
