Chart of the Day: SREITs proactive at managing debt

Singapore Real Estate Investment Trusts had healthier balance sheets, thanks to ample liquidity in the market and low interest rates through most of 2011.

According to Moody's Investor Service, about SGD2.9 billion of debt was due in the 12 months from 31 December, 2011. Of this, SGD770 million of debt already has committed facilities and/or cash drawdown available for re-financing purposes. On 31 December 2010, about SGD3.2 billion debt was due within the year.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
