Ascott REIT’s oversubscribed perpetual bond issuance raises $250m

Orders exceeded $1 billion.

Ascott REIT raised $250m from its oversubscribed issuance of perpetual securities, with orders exceeding $1 billion or over four times the issue size.

The bonds have a fixed distribution rate of 4.68% per annum. The group said that the proceeds will be used to fund potential acquisitions in the future.

The perpetual securities which will be accounted as equity will be unrated. OCBC Bank is the sole lead manager, bookrunner and underwriter for the issuance of the perpetual securities.

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.
