Rising rents to boost Suntec Reit’s office, retail assets: Maybank 

The firm’s distribution per unit went up 15% in the second quarter of 2022.

An increase in rents will fuel the fundamentals of Suntec Reit’s office and retail assets amidst the improvement in occupancy and demand recovery, said Maybank.

In its report, Suntec’s distribution per unit (DPU) in the second quarter (Q2) of 2022 rose 15% year-on-year (YoY) and 1% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) due to improvement at Suntec City and contribution from London properties. 

With this, Maybank increased its DPU forecasts for Suntec by 1% to 2% due to a revival of stronger rent.

Suntec City mall’s performance improved in Q2 2022 with “revenue posting at +30% YoY/+1% QoQ and NPI at +51% YoY/-1% QoQ, underpinned by higher occupancy of 96.1% (vs 96.0% in 1Q22 and 93.9% in 2Q21) and new tenants (31% in 1H22, vs 48% in 1Q22).”

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.
