CityDev's growth outlook hampered by 'harsh' restrictions in Singapore market

Also threatened by limited land bank.

According to Maybank Kim Eng, City Development's management believes that the effects from the various rounds of cooling measures are filtering through, with developers more willing to lower profit margin expectations.

Management also stated that the harsh Qualifying Certificate (QC) restrictions make it difficult for listed developers to secure land from the private market and face immense competition for limited land bank in Singapore.

While hoping that the government will review the cooling measures and make timely adjustments when required, the Group remains cautious in bidding for land in Singapore and will instead focus on building up its overseas growth engines.

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.
