ASEAN Market Highlights In the April 2013 IMF World Economic Outlook, GDP growth of ASEAN-5 was revised upwards versus downward revisions for United States, Europe, China and India. Alongside listing a number of stocks and trusts that generate a large percentage of their revenue in ASEAN neighboring states, SGX offer a number of ETFs that provide exposure to the performance of ASEAN equity indices. While the majority of the ETFs are US Dollar denominated, the majority of the stock offerings are denominated in the Singapore Dollar (SGD). Furthermore, the strong external position of reserves at 100% of GDP means Singapore is one of three countries in the world outside Europe & UK to maintain the highest sovereign rate by Fitch, S&P and Moody’s. Coinciding with increased physical trade flows between ASEAN and China, the largest IPO in Asia in the 2013 YTD has been a REIT which holds assets in Greater China and is managed by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mapletree Investments.

Possible capital market implications into 2020 Growing infrastructure requirements and cross border trade growth with ASEAN has coincided with GDP growth in recent years. On the Infrastructure side, according to the Asia Development Bank (ADB), there are 15 projects under the Master Plan of ASEAN Connectivity, of which six involve physical infrastructure. ADB have estimated that ASEAN needs US$600 bn between 2010 and 2020 to build power, transport, water and sanitation and telecommunications infrastructure. Conventional methods to raise funds include government funding, foreign direct investment, public and private partnerships and capital markets. REITs or Business Trusts can pay distributions to investors out of operating cash flows and can thus be an appropriate structure for an organisation with high initial capital expenditures with stable operating cash flows. The Business Trust structure is more suited for businesses with stable growth and cash flow, such as infrastructure and utilities businesses, vehicle leases and charters. SGX The Asian Gateway 25
Recent Business Trust Highlights In 2012, the number of Business Trusts listed on SGX grew 30% with the listing of Ascendas Hospitality Business Trust, Far East Hospitality Business Trust and Religare Health Trust. The combined full market capitalisation of the 13 Business Trusts listed on SGX currently amounts to S$18.6 billion. According to the MAS’s OPERA database, two Business Trusts, Global Telecommunications Infrastructure Trust and Croesus Retail Trust have lodged listing prospectuses. A Business Trust is an alternative structure of a commercial operation which might otherwise be legally incorporated as company. Typically, a Business Trust holds and manages assets for the Trust beneficiaries. These assets can be related to property, infrastructure, utilities and shipping. SGX The Asian Gateway 26
