Author's Opinion

Overall, the performance remains stable. Despite the interest rate hike and inflation impact on financing costs and operational costs (e.g. energy), easing of travel and COVID-19 restrictions in Singapore and Australia could cushion the impacts. Also, SPH REIT has changed the financial year end from 31 August to 31 December, in which FY22 would consist of 16 months that include 1 September 2022 to 31 December 2022.

    Too few properties. Paragon, Clementi mall & an Aust mall. Likely to ask money to buy more. [Facepalm]
