Karachi, June 02, 2021: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on Wednesday announced favorable changes in the ‘Basel Capital Adequacy’ framework for the Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).
These changes will allow banks to book greater exposure in REITs, facilitate the development of Housing Finance as well as Capital Market in the country.
REIT Management companies in Pakistan had submitted their recommendation to the State Bank earlier this year. Now, banks’ investment in REITs will require them to set aside less capital against risk emanating from this investment activity, which is being described as a positive development by the senior bankers.
Moreover, their investment in REITs shall now be categorized in the “Banking Book” instead of “Trading Book”.
REITs are a quintessential instrument for the government to achieve documentation, transparency and promote real estate development in the country. Effective participation by banking companies will support this structure and provide confidence to the market.
The REIT Management Companies are thankful to the SBP and consider this as an important milestone towards the development of REIT industry in Pakistan.
Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up
what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any helpful hints for newbie blog writers?
I’d genuinely appreciate it.
Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it
from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really
make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got
your theme. Thanks
I truly love your website.. Great colors & theme.
Did you build this site yourself? Please reply back as I’m trying to create my very own website
and would love to learn where you got this from or exactly
what the theme is called. Thanks!
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I
found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell
to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and
it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!
