Capitaland bags new serviced residence contracts in four Asian cities

It will manage over 850 new units.

The world's largest global serviced residence owner continued to flex its muscles as it heads towards its goal of 80k units globally by 2020.

Supplementary to new units in Binh Duong and Seoul, Capitaland's serviced residence arm, Ascott, will be launching its maiden units in Yogyakarta and Miri.

Meanwhile, according to OCBC, the group aims to bank on fund management to further accelerate its growth.

"We expect the group to leverage on its fund management platform and work alongside blue-chip capital partners who will provide additional financial backing," OCBC said.

"To recap, the group had earlier this year established with Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) a 50-50 JV to set up a US$600m serviced residence fund with an initial focus on Asia Pacific and Europe. This was Ascott’s largest private equity fund to date and we understand that CAPL targets to launch six new funds with total AUM of up to S$10b by 2020," OCBC added.

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.
