Suntec Reit’s office portfolio to slow down due to tech sector’s problems: RHB

RHB sees moderating rent growth and an uptick in vacancy.

With the technology sector experiencing layoffs, Suntec Reit’s office portfolio will struggle with rent growth and increasing occupancy rate.

RHB said this as it downgrades to neutral the stock from buy. The target price for the Reit is at $1.47 from 1.70. 

“This, coupled with the sharp interest cost impact from a spike in rates, should weigh on its  share price,” said RHB. 

Under Suntec’s portfolio, the technology sector is the largest occupier of Suntec City Office Towers and is a key source of new leasing demand in recent years.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
