OUE mulls over commercial REIT listing in the future
How do analysts view this?
According to OCBC, on 25 Sep, the group announced it was exploring the listing of a commercial REIT on the mainboard of the SGX.
The initial portfolio is expected to include OUE Bayfront and other commercial properties owned by Lippo China Resources Limited (a company listed on HKSE).
"While the timing and size of the listing is yet to be confirmed, we believe this capital recycling may be an attractive catalyst for value realization and a possible special dividend ahead," OCBC said.
