Past Events
Over the weekend, 1200 retail investors filled a hall in Suntec to hear from CEOs of various REIT managers about their business and discuss key trends in the REIT sector. Investors also got a chance to visit the booths of different REITs and talk to senior representatives from the company. Great to see so much interest in Singapore REITs!
A big thanks to all presenters, panelists and our co-organizer Shareinvestor!
REITAS co-organized a property tour for retail investors to one of Ascott Residence Trust’s Singapore properties – Ascott Orchard.

The tour was co-organized with SGX Academy and Ascott Residence Trust.
