CapitaLand
Financial Limited (CFL) is the real estate fund
management and financial advisory services arm
of CapitaLand Group. Its in-house capabilities
include real estate capital management, structured
financing, property fund management and advisory
services. It complements CapitaLand’s real
estate domain knowledge to originate, structure,
manage and distribute real estate financial products
and funds. Its investors and partners in property
funds include insurance companies, pension funds
and large corporations from Asia, USA, Europe
and the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) countries.
CapitaLand Group
currently manages 15 private equity funds and five
real estate investment trusts (REITs) with assets
under management (AUM) worth about S$18.0 billion,
spanning 11 countries. The five REITs are CapitaMall
Trust (CMT), CapitaCommercial Trust (CCT), CapitaRetail
China Trust (CRCT), Ascott Residence Trust (ART)
and Quill Capita Trust (QCT). QCT, which was listed
in January 2007 on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia
(the Malaysian Stock Exchange), is the Group’s
first REIT listed outside Singapore.
In addition, CFL also advised and launched six
new funds in 2007, namely Malaysia Commercial Development
Fund (US$270.0 million), Raffles City Bahrain Fund
(US$350.0 million), Ascott China Fund (US$500.0
million), CapitaRetail China Development Fund II
(US$600.0 million), CapitaLand AIF (US$180.0 million)
and CapitaRetail India Development Fund (US$600.0 million). In early 2008, the company announced
its plans for a US$300.0 million development fund
for real estate projects in Vietnam.
These REITs and funds are central to CapitaLand’s
business model and enable CapitaLand to develop,
warehouse and incubate retail, office, and integrated
developments in Asia, Europe and the GCC countries. |
