OUE Commercial Real Estate Investment Trust will retain a 50% ownership and OUE-related entities will continue to maintain both asset and property management of the development.
“This transaction demonstrates that global investor appetite for high-quality office buildings remains very strong in core gateway markets, and that there is real confidence in the resilience of the Singapore office market,” comments Stuart Crow, CEO, Capital Markets, Asia Pacific, at JLL, which brokered the deal.
The 50% interest acquisition in OUE Bayfront marks Allianz Real Estate’s latest move in the Singapore office market, following landmark transactions which included acquiring the Duo asset with GAW Capital Partners in July 2019, and purchasing a stake in Ocean Financial Centre in November 2018.
