China's REIT Market Development Needs Retail-Investor Participation -- Market Talk

Dow Jones12-05

1046 GMT - Retail-investor participation in China's REIT market will likely be pivotal to its development, says Cushman & Wakefield's Francis Li. China's household savings exceed 160 trillion yuan and could be channeled into the REIT sector, which saw its market value expand by around 85% last year, according to a release of his comments at a summit. The government's 15th five-year plan, which focuses on optimizing education, healthcare and social-security policies, will also likely boost domestic consumption and the overall financial market, adds the international director and head of capital markets for Greater China. "This, in turn, will likely improve the liquidity of the [Chinese REIT] market, enabling it to play a more significant role in the recovery of China's commercial real-estate sector."
