Healthcare REITs cash in on rich, rapidly aging Asians

They can breeze through the economic slowdown.

Singapore-listed healthcare REITs are well-placed to weather Asia's economic slowdown thanks to the region's affluent but rapidly aging population.

According to a report by Fitch Ratings, healthcare-focused REITs continue to post a strong performance due to robust and defensive demand for healthcare and elderly care services.

"The sector's revenue and net property income grew by 5% year-on-year in 1Q15, due to organic and acquisitive growth. The healthcare REITs have exceptionally strong lease structures versus many peers listed in Singapore," the report said.

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.
