SGX and REITAs team up to boost public knowledge on REITs

Over 20,000 investors are expected to benefit.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) and the REIT Association of Singapore (REITAS) have launched an initiative to educate the public on REITs and stapled trusts.

Delivered through SGX Academy and REITAS, this initiative comprises roadshows and monthly workshops.

Participants will meet REITs managers to learn about the various types of REITs, how they are structured and managed, with a focus on generating steady income and long-term capital growth for unit holders.

This will be complemented by the launch of online education materials by June 2015. Around 20,000 investors are expected to benefit from this initiative.

The first of the monthly SGX-REITAS Workshops will take place on Saturday, 24 January 2015. This will be followed by SGX’s “My First Stock Carnival” from 6-8 Feb 2015, where REITs will be among the featured 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.
