Far East Hospitality Trust, OUE H-REIT most vulnerable to lower visitor arrivals, says Moody’s

Aggregate earnings will grow by less than 2%.

Far East Hospitality Trust and OUE Hospitality Real Estate Investment Trust are the most adversely affected by the lower visitor numbers in Singapore, a report by Moody's Investors Service stated today.

Moody's conclusions were released after the Singapore Tourism Board announced that tourist arrivals fell 3.1% year-over-year in 2014, the first decline in five years.

"FEHT and OUE H-REIT are the most affected by the fall in visitor numbers because their focus is on the
Singapore market. We expect FEHT and OUE H-REIT's aggregate EBITDA to grow by less than 2% in 2015," says Jacintha Poh, a Moody's Assistant Vice President and Analyst.

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.
