Singapore’s inflation, which reached multi-year highs in 2021 at 2.3%, up from -0.2% in 2020, is expected to remain high in 2022 as well. The prolonged war between Ukraine and Russia has added to the woes with a surge in food and energy prices due to supply shortages. Real estate is one asset class that performs well in a high inflation environment. While the purchase of physical properties requires large investment sums, REITS, on the other hand, offer a more palatable option to get exposure to the property market. Given that most of the safe management measures were lifted from 26 April 2022, and coupled with MAS’s expectation of GDP growth to be between 3% and 5% this year, some sectors could perform better than others in the second half of 2022. Here are four REIT sectors that we t

2021 wasn’t a great year for REITs. When everyone thought that the worst was over, the new variants Delta and Omicron emerged. This resulted in the tightening of pandemic measures in Singapore and the rest of the world. The new variants caught everyone by surprise, especially investors with exposure to REITs. REITs with a heavy concentration in the retail and office sectors remained laggards in terms of recovery as workers continued to work from home. Travel bubbles have helped but it wasn’t sufficient to stage a full recovery of tourist arrivals, so hospitality assets remain depressed. Industrial REITs with logistics and data centre assets, which benefited from lockdowns in 2020, did poorly in 2021. Performance of selected Singapore REITs. The returns in the chart don’t co
