12 largest commercial investment deals in 1H2013

Topping the list is a $446 million deal.

Knight Frank reports that commercial and hotel investment sales in 1H 2013 comprised smaller bite-sized deals which totalled about $3.7 billion. This is substantially smaller than $7.4 billion achieved in the latter half of 2012, where we saw large investment transactions exceeding $1 billion, such as the $2.1 billion investment from the flotation of Far East Hospitality Trust and the $1.1 billion investment deal from the increased NTUC Income’s stake in Parkway Parade.

Despite the lower transaction volume in 1H 2013, Knight Frank notes that investment interest in private commercial and hotel sector remains active. "Continuous sourcing for suitable investment developments are observed in the market, though compressed yields and elevated asking prices for available commercial developments remained key concerns for buyers."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
