- We note that 66% of divested assets were retained within CapitaLand Investment-managed funds, maintaining asset control. These proceeds strengthened CapitaLand Investment’s balance sheet with net debt/equity falling to 0.39x as at end-24 (end- 23: 0.56x) which translates to S$7.4b of debt headroom for growth should it choose to increase its net debt/equity to 0.9x.
