Developers expected to be cautious in bidding activities

Investors’ risk appetite in the near term will remain low due to external volatility, says DBS.

Here's more from DBS:

Bottom-up stock picking. From the developers’ perspective, we think they are likely to be relatively more cautious in their land selection and bidding activities to replenish their much-depleted landholdings. With the ongoing global uncertainties, property stocks have retreated from their year high and are trading at a 37% discount to RNAV or at –1SD to mean level.

While we think much of the valuations have factored in the cautious outlook, investors’ risk appetite in the near term will remain low due to external volatility. Our strategy in the developer space would be to prefer those with a diversified property segment exposure such Capitaland and UOL as well as those with lower residential activities and are market players in their niche such as CMA and GLP.

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.
