Key Takeaways
Cromwell European REIT +18.2
• A fourth round of stimulus package (Fortitude Budget) totalling S$33b was
Lendlease Global Comm. REIT +17.5
announced by the Singapore government on 26 May 2020. Adding this to
Keppel Pacific Oak US REIT +16.7
the previous three Budgets announced earlier this year, a total of S$92.9b,
or ~19.2% of Singapore’s GDP will be spent to boost the economy. Besides
Weekly top laggers (%)
an enhancement to the Jobs Support Scheme (JSS), one of the more
BHG Retail REIT -4.8
significant announcements affecting the S-REITs sector comes from rental
Sabana REIT +1.5 relief measures to support SMEs. This comes in the form of new
CapitaLand Retail China Trust +1.6 government cash grants which will be provided to SME tenants in
qualifying commercial and other non-residential properties such as
industrial and office properties. However, it was also highlighted that a
new Bill will be introduced by the Ministry of Law which will mandate that
landlords have to contribute by granting a rental waiver to their SME
Weekly sector performance (%) tenants who have suffered a significant drop in revenue in the past few
Others +19.5 months. The implication of this is that SME tenants in commercial
properties who have experienced a significant decline in revenue will
Data Centre +8.9
benefit from a total of four months of rental relief to be shared equally
Hospitality +8.3
between the government and landlords. Other SME tenants in industrial
Healthcare +8.1
and office properties will also be given some relief. While this is potentially
Office +7.9
negative on affected S-REITs’ near-term cashflows, we believe ensuring
Industrial +6.8
the survival of their tenants would have far-reaching benefits as any
Retail +6.5
backfilling of vacancies would likely take a prolonged period of time
Overall +7.4 amid a global recession. We continue to recommend investors to stick
with quality REITs with strong sponsors and healthy balance sheets, and/or
REITs with deep value (i.e. negatives priced in). Our preferred S-REIT picks
