APREA Real Assets Bulletin – September 2024

The real estate market in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region continues to exhibit robust growth at a global scale, including significant advancements in the housing segment and green transformation. Technological progress in APAC economies has also catalysed transformation within the real estate sector, with digitalisation and data centre development gaining momentum. These changes have concurrently influenced the development of real estate projects within the region.

Globally, the real estate sector is increasingly embracing environment, social and governance (ESG)-driven innovations such as acquiring green city ratings, investments in renewable energy projects, among others. This shift is evident in the updated real estate regulations within the APAC region for 1QFY25. Several APAC economies, including China, Hong Kong, Japan and India have implemented guidelines promoting green infrastructure and technology integration to augment their real estate markets. Furthermore, commercial and industrial real estate is significantly rising in the APAC region with development plans for business and commercial projects underway.

In line with these strategic developments, APAC economies offer an attractive prospect for investors due to regulatory updates aimed at attracting various asset classes and types. These economies are predicted to play a pivotal role in channelling regional investments and fostering development in the forthcoming months.
