In a release, Mapletree Greater China Commercial Trust (MGCCT) said that its stock closed at S$1.03 per Unit, 10.8% above its initial public offering (IPO) price of S$0.93 per Unit to become the third most actively traded counter on its first day of trading with a total of over 238 million Units changing hands.

The Manager’s Chief Executive Officer, Ms Cindy Chow said, “We are excited that MGCCT has come to market. MGCCT’s strong debut on its first trading day speaks clearly of its quality and potential. With solid support and an excellent track record from our Sponsor, Mapletree Investments Pte Ltd, MGCCT is set to deliver an attractive yield plus growth profile to its investors.

The IPO of MGCCT marked several milestones. It is the first and only commercial REIT with properties in both Hong Kong and China. Having raised proceeds of over S$1.6 billion, it is also the largest real estate investment trust (“REIT”) IPO in Singapore to date.

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.
