Listed on the Singapore Exchange Securities Limited (“SGX-ST”), it made its public market debut as Mapletree Commercial Trust on 27 April 2011 and was renamed MPACT on 3 August 2022 following the merger with Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust.

Its principal investment objective is to invest on a long-term basis, directly or indirectly, in a diversified portfolio of income-producing real estate used primarily for office and/or retail purposes, as well as real estate-related assets, in the key gateway markets of Asia (including but not limited to Singapore, China, Hong Kong¹, Japan and South Korea).

Within Singapore, they are:

• Mapletree Business City (“MBC”) – a large-scale integrated office, business park and retail complex with Grade A building specifications, supported by ancillary retail space, located in the Alexandra Precinct;
• mTower – an established integrated development with a 40-storey office block and a three-storey retail centre, Alexandra Retail Centre (“ARC”), located in the Alexandra Precinct;
• Mapletree Anson – a 19-storey premium office building located in the Central Business District (“CBD”); and
• Bank of America HarbourFront (“BOAHF”) – A premium six-storey office building located in the HarbourFront Precinct.

MPACT is one of the three REITs sponsored by Mapletree Investments Pte Ltd (“MIPL” or the “Sponsor”), a leading real estate development, investment, capital and property management company headquartered in Singapore.

MPACT is managed by MPACT Management Ltd. (“MPACTM” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIPL. The Manager aims to provide unitholders of MPACT (“Unitholders”) with a relatively attractive rate of return on their investment through regular and steady distributions, and to achieve long-term stability in Distribution per Unit (“DPU”) and Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per Unit, while maintaining an appropriate capital structure for MPACT.

2022 FY Financial results:

MPACT Achieves 65.4% and 62.6% Growth in FY22/23 Gross Revenue and Net Property Income

Full-year distribution per unit (“DPU”) totalled 9.61 Singapore cents.

Boosted by contribution from properties acquired through the merger1.

Better performance of core assets, VivoCity and Mapletree Business City (“MBC”), cushioned higher utility and finance costs in FY22/23. 

Positive rental reversion recorded by all markets except Greater China.

VivoCity’s full-year tenant sales set new record at over S$1 billion, and asset enhancement initiative (“AEI”) on Level 1 on track for opening from end-May 2023.

Improvement in shopper traffic and tenant sales at Festival Walk with the lifting of COVID measures and reopening of border with Mainland China.

Successfully renewed major leases at Bank of America HarbourFront, Festival Walk, Gateway Plaza and MBC during the year, adding to portfolio resilience.

  STI ETF  - Investment in this counter is like investing in All the index component counters like Bank, famous reit , blue chips etc, yearly dividend of about 14.6 cents , yield is of 4.5 percent seem quite a nice dividend yield for this ETF, i think much better than ParkwayLife Reit! Do take note! 

XD of 7.3 cents on 13th February,  looks like we may see some buying interest!

I am waiting for her to go below RSI 30 to plan my trade!

Pls dyodd.

This method of operation is to buy into STI ETF whenever it is in an oversold condition

 and to sell off and take profits whenever it is in an overbought condition. 

For example, one may use the  indicator such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to gauge when it is overbought ( above 70 ) or oversold condition( below 30).


One may plan to buy and selling of units in several batches whenever in oversold or overbought conditions in order to get the best average price.



For example you may plan to buy in at different interval or whenever the Oversold situation happen .


In any one year, there will be three to four such window opportunities of overbought or oversold conditions to operate by buying or selling units of the ETF. At the same time, we can also kept some units always to receive dividend income and for their long term growth in price appreciation.

With discipline and patience , one should be able to get good average returns per year in excess of certain % by this one simple strategy of investing in one single ETF .I think This simple one strategy is safe and allow one to sleep soundly at night without worry of negative news affecting individual stocks in one's portfolio which could crash the share price of the particular stock the next day. This is because even if one or two of the component stocks in STI ETF of blue chips should collapse in share prices, there will be 28 others to diversify away the risk of the entire portfolio collapsing at anytime.


As for younger folks who just started out working and does not have enough cashflows and savings , one may start to spread out the different batch of buying or applying the Dollar-cost-averaging method by investing $1000 at 6-8 different batches that would be able to achieve  lower average costs per unit.
