Ascendas REIT 'not presently' pushing with Hyflux debt moratorium carve-out

This comes after the latter’s second pre-trial conference (PTC) on 2 July.

Ascendas REIT (A-REIT) has informed the High Court that it is not presently proceeding with its application to be carved out of Hyflux’s debt moratorium by the Unsecured Working Group, an SGX filing revealed.

This comes after the embattled water firm attended a second pre-trial conference (PTC) on 2 July. The PTC has set out some instructions and schedules to the parties involved in filing their affidavits, prior to the 27 July hearing led by Justice Aedit Abdullah.

In Hyflux’s first PTC last 18 June, it announced the hearing date in relation to the application to be carved out of the moratorium by the Unsecured Working Group. It will also determine issues on any application to be carved out of the moratorium by RBC Investors Services Trust Singapore (as trustee of ESR-REIT) and/or HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited (as trustee of Ascendas Real Estate Investment Trust).

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.
