regiOnal Overview

ecoNomic overviewDespite the continued sovereign debt issues in the Eurozone, market sentiment improved slightly in 4Q 2012. Asia Pacific economies showed signals of a rebound in economic activity amidst generally rising exports and stabilizing inflation. With elections in the US, Europe and mainland China having already taken place in 4Q 2012, there has been a clearer direction in Asian investors’ strategy going forward. The encouraging performance of asset indexes in the region has resulted in positive sentiment in the real estate market. Similarly, most corporations continue to implement business plans that are based on expansion and growth in the region.

leAsiNG mArketOn the leasing market front, the overall level of new office leasing inquiries in the Asia-Pacific region edged down mildly in 4Q 2012 as the year-end approached. However, a number of occupiers continued to take advantage of the current supply cycle to relocate and upgrade to better quality buildings. Similar to the preceding quarter, the most active office tenant groups remained in the IT / communication and Finance industries.

Office rents in most cities in China, Australia and Southeast Asia increased mildly in 4Q 2012. Jakarta saw the greatest rental growth, in the order of 10% QoQ in 4Q 2012, with many overseas companies in the banking and financing industries seeking office space. Manila prime office rents increased about 2.0% QoQ during the quarter, underpinned by strong demand from the offshoring and outsourcing activities. Hanoi saw average rent decrease the most among cities in the region, in the order of 4.0% QoQ in 4Q 2012, as office developments in the CBD increased competition for tenants. Meanwhile, Hong Kong saw average rent fell by 2.3% QoQ in 4Q 2012, with demand for top-tier buildings remaining weak.

sAles mArketThe average office prices increased further in 4Q 2012. The office market became more active compared with previous quarter, as more occupiers took advantage of the prevailing low-interest environment to acquire real estate for long-term occupation rather than leasing. Hong Kong has seen sales volumes surging up in the office market due to the shift of investment capital from residential to non-residential property. Meanwhile, Chinese insurance companies became more active in real estate investment during 4Q 2012, following the relaxation of regulations and specific guidance implemented by the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (CIRC).

mArket outlookThe sovereign debt issues in the Eurozone are likely to continue in 2013, but economic activity should gradually recover as global demand strengthens and increasing financial market confidence works its way through the economy. Market sentiment is expected to remain positive in 2013 as the accelerating economic growth in China is predicted to generate a significant positive spill-over to the rest of the countries in Asia. Leasing demand for offices in the region is expected to remain steady with both landlords and tenants holding a cautiously optimistic view on the market outlook over the next 12 months. Asian banks are expected to be more accommodating to real estate financing with the improving supply of credit. Meanwhile, additional lenders and mezzanine funds are increasing investor access to capital. These positive trends and improvement in sentiment are expected to increase investment volumes.

asia pacific office market overview | 4Q 2012

cHiNABeijing• There was no new Grade A office supply completed in 4Q 2012. Consequently, the total

stock of the market rested at 5.17 million sq m as of the end of 4Q 2012.

• Demand for Beijing’s Grade A office properties was subdued during 4Q 2012. Inquiries and leasing transactions for quality office space edged down during this quarter due to economic deceleration, high rental costs and seasonal factors. The net absorption recorded was a negative 562 sq m as of the end of 4Q 2012, and the overall vacancy rate edged up by 0.01 percentage points quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) to 3.52%.

• Rents grew minimally by 0.69% QoQ to RMB327.33 per sq m per month as of the end of 4Q 2012. The most expensive office sub-market was the CBD area, with rents averaging RMB372.06 per sq m per month, while the Zhongguancun area registered an average rent of RMB252.53 per sq m per month, the cheapest among seven Grade A sub-markets.

• Although no en bloc sales transactions were disclosed in 4Q 2012, some domestic owner-occupiers in sectors such as IT, finance, banking and insurance continued to be very active in sourcing properties. By comparison, the office strata-title sales market saw more activities during the quarter.

chengdu• In 4Q 2012, there were no new office buildings introduced into the Chengdu Grade A office

market. The total stock of Grade A office space in Chengdu was 718,922 sq m.

• The overall average rent maintained a falling trend, dropping by 1.33% QoQ, to RMB135.46 per sq m per month, and the overall vacancy rate decreased by 4.65 percentage points QoQ to 19.77%. The demand for offices has shifted towards high-quality premises. Consequently, the rents of premium projects trended upwards in 4Q 2012, while some of the old projects – or at least those in non-prime locations – have to face downward pressure on rents.

• The financial industry and related sectors have been important tenants during the past few months. Furthermore, large-scale manufacturing enterprises and real estate development enterprises remained active as well

shanghai• In December, the State Council released a detailed five-year plan for the service sector,

in which tertiary GDP is forecast to eclipse both the primary and secondary industry sectors by 2015. This strong government support will likely drive new demand for office space in the next few years.

• Absorption of Shanghai Grade A office premises was relatively slow in 4Q 2012. The average vacancy rate edged down from the third quarter’s 9.5% to 9.2%. Jing’an recorded the lowest vacancy rate of all districts at just 5.3%.

• The average rental rate for Grade A premises continued to increase in the fourth quarter, rising by 1.2% QoQ to RMB8.8 per sq m per day. This represents a 7.5% increase over the year, down in comparison with 2011’s average rent growth rate of 15.8%.

• Premium quality office stock registered rapid absorption over more standard Grade A accommodation as evidenced by L’Avenue, which by the end of 4Q 2012 had achieved commitment rate of around 75%.

• Average gross yields for en bloc Grade A office premises in prime locations remained unchanged from the last quarter’s 5.8%. The relaxation on insurance companies' investment restrictions by the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (CIRC) will likely further drive up the capital values of prime investment grade offices.

guangzhou• A total of approximately 144,600 sq m of new supply from Poly Central Pivot Plaza and

the Pinnacle Plaza in Pearl River New City were added to the market in 4Q 2012. The total stock of Guangzhou Grade A offices was pushed up to 2.95 million sq m. The overall vacancy rate increased 2.1 percentage points to 24.3% in this quarter.

• Due to seasonal factors, office leasing market activity decreased in 4Q 2012. Office rents edged down 0.6% QoQ to RMB156.64 per sq m per month in 4Q 2012.

HoNG koNGhong kong• Overall Grade A office rents fell 2.3% QoQ in 4Q 2012. Central saw the deepest correction

at 5.7% during the quarter since the demand for top-tier buildings remained uninspiring.

• Quality office buildings in decentralised districts became increasingly popular among investors and end-users, particularly after the implementation of the Buyer’s Stamp Duty (BSD) in late October 2012 to restrict non-local buying activity in the residential market. For example, Stanhope House in North Point was sold by Hang Lung Properties to AIA for HK$2,398 million, representing an estimated market yield of 3.7%.

• In anticipation of a positive economic outlook and a steady growing occupational demand in the legal sector, overall Grade A office rents are expected to post mild growth of 4% over the next 12 months.

taipei• The Fabulous International Commercial Building was completed in 4Q 2012 and the total

stock of Grade A offices increased 5,000 ping to 543,295 ping. Since the net take-up of Grade A offices was only 1,730 ping during the quarter, the Grade A office vacancy rate slightly climbed 52 basis points to 9.93%.

• The total net take-up of TUN S district amounted to 1,321 ping in 4Q 2012, leading to a decline in the vacancy rate by 174 basis points during the quarter, to 4.96%. The key driver was Cathay Life Insurance Co. taking up 1,300 ping in Cathay Dun Nan Building. On the other hand, the net take-up in the West district was -1,325 ping owing to Shin Kong Bank moving out of Shin Kong Life Tower to Shin Kong Xin Yi Financial Building which caused the vacancy rate to rise 2.83 percentage points to 7.76%.

• The average effective rent of Grade A offices edged down 0.11% QoQ to NT$2,438 per ping per month in 4Q 2012. The effective rent of Hsin-Yi district was the highest at NT$2,824 per ping per month.



seoul• During 4Q 2012, the average rent was KRW24,209 per sq m, a marginal growth of less

than 1% QoQ. The overall vacancy rate increased nine basis points in 4Q 2012 to 7.51%.

• K Office in the GBD, covering 13,580 sq m of gross floor area, was the only new supply in 4Q 2012. About 35% of the new space has been absorbed since its completion.

• Market momentum in the CBD has recovered at a moderate pace as demand on leasing has shown positive growth since 4Q 2011. The vacancy rate in the CBD decreased by 10 basis points QoQ to 11.8% in 4Q 2012, which was the lowest level since 3Q 2011.

• In the YBD, Two IFC, which was launched in 3Q 2012, recorded an occupancy rate at about 18% as Nivea, AIG and Macoll Consulting signed lease contracts during the last quarter of 2012.

• Three IFC and FKI Building in the YBD are scheduled for completion in 2013, providing 275,460 sq m of office space. As the new supply may exceed the YBD’s current capacity for absorption in the long term, the vacancy rate is forecast to hit 30% in late 2013.

tokyo• Four years of increasing supply peaked in the first half of 2012.

• Rents remain low with significant valuable incentives from higher vacancy properties.

• Vacancy range bounded at high levels.

• As supply moderates, the focus shifts towards demand.

• Economic indicators were generally weak in 4Q 2012

• Increased government stimulus programmes are expected during 2013.

iNDoNesiAjakarta• Business activities continue to expand in most non-export-oriented sectors, while other

export-oriented sectors, such as textiles, shipping and forwarding, are affected by the declining global market. For some years, the office market has been underpinned by the expansion of existing companies and from new companies tasting the growing local market.

• Limited office supply during the last six months of 2012 remains the major issue in the office market, resulting in the continued increase in rental rates. For companies with expansion plans, this should not become a hurdle. However, some of the above-mentioned tenants have to review their leasing expenses.

• Amidst climbing rental rates, the purchase of strata-title offices is becoming more popular, as it provides stable yields and capital gain. Further growth in the price of strata-title office space in 2013 can be expected due to the positive economic outlook.

• The overall cost of occupancy will increase during 2013. In addition to the growing rental trends, the government is anticipating a hike in the electricity tariff, parking tariff and minimum wage.Re

kuala lumpur• New completion in 4Q 2012 including the 40-storey Integra Tower @ The Intermark,

which contributed 736,000 sq ft of net lettable area. This international ‘green’ building with LEED certification will have one of the largest floor plates in town, approximately 25,000 sq ft per floor.

• KLCC Property Holdings Bhd (KLCCP) is undertaking a restructuring exercise to form a stapled REIT (KLCCSR), which is expected to be Malaysia's largest REIT, with investment properties worth RM15 billion. This will include the injection of three wholly owned office assets such as the iconic PETRONAS Twin Towers, Menara 3 PETRONAS and Menara ExxonMobil into a REIT vehicle.

karachi• The Karachi office market remains challenging due to the prevailing uncertainty at the

macro-economic level and the upcoming elections.

• The market remained very competitive, with very limited transactions observed. Rents have been sliding downwards, with notable transactions including the NIB Bank leasing 72,000 sq ft or six office floors in PNSC Building for PKR 60 per sq ft per month. This is in contrast to the landlord’s asking rent of PKR 120 per sq ft per month.

• In view of limited activity on the sales market, landlords have opted to offer their high quality office buildings for lease rather than for sale.

• Two office projects, The Centre and Foakh Tower, have resumed construction after two years of suspension.

manila• In 4Q 2012, premium office vacancy rates in Makati CBD increased to 5.38% from 4.28%

in the previous quarter. Besides the recent inclusion of Zuellig building, the increase in vacancy was owed to the relocation of Stream Global Services from PB Com Tower to SLC, a Grade B office building.

• Alphaland Makati Tower and V Tower are scheduled for completion in 2013, adding about 61,400 sq m new office space in Makati CBD. Due to the lack of developable land in Makati CBD, supply is expected to be constricted in the long term.

• Meanwhile, demand for office space in Metro Manila remained high due to strong demand from the offshoring and outsourcing of industry. The average prime rental rate was set at P770 per sq m per month in 4Q 2012. It is projected to reach P835 per sq m per month in the next 12 months.

Bangkok• The northern Bangkok CBD is set to become a major business district, as multi-national

companies increasingly seek a presence in this part of the city.

• New office developments in the northern CBD will start entering the market in 2013. Moreover, dozens of new projects in the pipeline in this area are due for completion in 2014 and 2015.

• In view of the limited supply in CBD, the average rent in the area is expected to further increase over the next 12 months.

singapore• Business sentiment in Singapore remained generally positive on the back of intermittent

positive economic news in 4Q 2012 as a result of a slew of stimulating measures implemented across the globe to spur economic growth.

• Supported by healthy demand from tenants relocating to quality office space, the average occupancy rate of CBD Grade A office space strengthened further from 93.1% in 3Q 2012 to 94.1% in 4Q 2012, the highest level in almost two years.

• The increase in occupancy helped moderate the decline in rent for CBD Grade A office space to 0.6% QoQ, the slowest pace of decline since the market headed south a year ago. As of December 2012, monthly gross rents for CBD Grade A office space averaged S$8.32 per sq ft.

• Despite Singapore’s strengthening market fundamentals, the continued challenging global economic environment and mounting supply pressures are expected to continue to push office rents in the CBD on a downtrend to a tune of 5% in 2013.

hanoi• In 2012, the market saw a number of large occupiers, especially MNCs, relocate to outer

districts due to significantly lower rents in those districts. It is expected that this trend will continue as new supply is expected to enter in these areas and more vendors are likely to compete through increased offering of incentives.

• In 2013, the majority of office developments will continue to take place outside of the CBD, particularly in the west (Cau Giay).

• Office developments in the CBD are expected to see keener competition from the new developments, as these are expected to enter the market at lower rents.

• The trend of relocation to outer districts is expected to continue as landlords of the new developments in outer districts increased incentive offerings to compete for tenants.

• A portion of planned office developments are expected to be delayed due to difficulty in accessing financing.

HO CHI MINH CITY OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE

vietNAm

ho chi minh city• The office market is still seeing a depressed take up rate due to the macro-economic

difficulties that Vietnam is addressing.

• Approximately 18,000 sqm new supply entered the market in 4Q 2012, of which approximately 30% was already pre-leased.

• In view of continued difficulties accessing financing, several office projects originally scheduled for launch in 2013 will be delayed.

• The market is expected to remain stable throughout 2013. The potential delay in a number of office developments is expected to soften the competition for tenants among the landlords. In anticipation of improvement in Vietnam’s economy and external environment in 2013, office market performance is expected to improve by the end of 2013.

BENGALURU OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE

Bengaluru (Bangalore)• Despite overall economic sentiments, demand for Grade A office space remained steady

and the city’s office market observed a few large floor plate deals during 4Q 2012. The IT/ITeS sector remained the major contributor of this demand.

• The absorption of Grade A office space was around 8 million sq ft in 2012, which was approximately 60% of the absorption in 2011.

• In terms of commercial leasing, Whitefield, Outer Ring Road and Electronic City remained the more preferred office locations. Tenants looking for expansion preferred these areas primarily due to the limited real estate options for expansion in the CBD areas and the availability of quality office space in these micro-markets.

• About 1.75 million sq ft of new office space was completed in 4Q 2012.

• In view of the cautious market sentiment and more prime office supply in the pipeline, the average rent remained stable during 4Q 2012.

sluggish. Most of the deals concluded during 4Q 2012 were mid-size transactions, with areas ranging from 10,000 to 25,000 sq ft.

• Guindy, Ambattur and OMR are popular areas among the companies looking for relocation options, taking into consideration accessibility, availability of amenities and ease of commuting for employees.

• Rents for Grade A office space remained stable during 4Q 2012. No major new supply was added to the city’s inventory during the quarter.

adelaide• On the back of recent and upcoming tenant relocations, a significant amount of existing

office premises will become available for occupation at various intervals over the next six to 12 months.

• The overall vacancy rate is forecast to increase in 1Q 2013 due to relocation activities. However, it should still be well below the historical average.

• There is strong demand for Grade A office space and this trend is likely to continue as more tenants seek the flight to quality.

• Those premises returning to the market due to relocation activities which are fully refurbished to high standards will be well positioned to fulfil much of this demand.

• Investor demand continues to be strong for well-located Prime grade assets and foreign investor interest will remain elevated in 2013.

BrisBane• Although the longevity of the resources boom has been brought into question, the fact

remains that there is still a significant amount of capital expenditure in the pipeline both committed to current projects and those in the feasibility stage. This output is expected to continue to translate into demand for office space from mining and resources companies and ancillary services.

• Developers remain confident in the Brisbane CBD office market with confirmation that a major prime office building will go ahead after securing a 15,000 sq m pre-commitment from mining and resources firm BHP Billiton.

• In addition, Japanese developer Daisho has confirmed that it will speculatively build a 57,000 sq m Prime grade office tower by the end of 2015.

• Prior to the delivery of these two projects, Prime grade vacancy is expected to decline to circa 5% by the end of 2015.

canBerra• Grade A office rent performance was resilient in 2012.

• Vacancy levels among quality premises have decreased in 4Q 2012 due to steady demand and a lack of new supply entering the market.

• Secondary yields have stabilised in 4Q 2012.

• Quality Grade A office premises with long-term government leases remain favoured by foreign investors, which may cause a slight compression to primary yields by the end of 2013.

• The level of Grade A office vacancy will fall during 2013 as steady demand continues and no new supply will be delivered to the market.

SYDNEY OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE

perth• Vacancy rates increased for six consecutive months to December 2012, driven primarily

by an increase in sub-lease office space coming onto the market.

• The increase in sub-lease space was resulted from deferred project development and capital investment, and job shedding in the mining and related supporting industries.

• Overall office rents softened marginally due to increased tenant options and competition with minimal growth expected in 2013.

• Capital values have been steady on an annual basis and are likely to remain stable in 2013.

sydney• Investors continued to show strong demand for high-quality office assets. The lack of

Prime grade properties on the market has seen opportunistic buyers begin to invest in quality Secondary grade assets.

• Tenant demand continued to remain stable at below average levels, with minimal rent growth and increased offering of incentives by landlords as a result.

• Prime grade office yields have continued to remain firm, while the yield gap between high- and low-quality Secondary grade office assets has widened.

• The new 5 Martin Place development secured a 44% pre-commitment. Scheduled for completion in early 2013, the construction work is expected to commence in early 2013

auckland• The total return of Auckland CBD office investment has increased from 9.2% to 9.9% in

3Q 2012. This is made up of 7.4% income return and 2.4% capital return, according to the latest updates from the Investment Property Databank / Property Council of New Zealand (IPD / PCNZ).

• Over the last 12 months, Auckland CBD leasing activity has remained relatively steady, underpinned by higher than expected demand from business tenants for prime office space.

• Office vacancy in the Auckland CBD fell 1.3 percentage points to 10.9% in the 12 months ending June 2012. Meanwhile, the announcement of the Local Authority purchasing the former ASB Bank premises as a part of consolidating their existing premises is anticipated to influence a downward trend in vacancy.

• Prime grade office yields firmed over the 12 months to December 2012, while Secondary grade office yields remained stable. This trend is anticipated to continue during 2013.

wellington• The total return of Wellington CBD office investment remained unchanged at 3.0% in 3Q

2012. This is made up of 8.3% income return and negative 4.9% capital return, according to the latest updates from the Investment Property Databank / Property Council of New Zealand (IPD / PCNZ).

• Perceived earthquake-prone buildings continue to be a significant driver for office tenants looking for different premises. As a result, leasing activity has been relatively strong over the last 12 months. While Secondary grade office rents declined slightly over the 12 months to December 2012, Prime grade office rents remained relatively stable.

• The overall vacancy rate stood at 14.9%, with only 6% of the total amount of vacant space in prime quality assets. Overall prime vacancy is forecast to fall over the next 12 months.

• During 2012, office investment activity continued to be strong in the CBD with the notable sales transaction of the Forsyth Barr & Bayleys Towers in the heart of Wellington’s Golden Mile, sold by AMP Capital Property Portfolio to Robt. Jones Holdings (RJH) for NZ$50.5 million, at an initial yield of 8.78% per annum.
