As of 15 Aug 2025 (Fri), SRT rose modestly +0.27% WTD in SGD and +6.75% YTD in SGD. WTD gains were driven primarily by office, multi-asset and retail by subsector, and MPACT, CLINT and Suntec REIT by individual REIT.

CLINT rose last week after agreeing with India’s Maharashtra state government to invest over 192 billion rupees by 2030 to boost growth in Mumbai and Pune, which is part of CLINT’s overall growth strategy.

The CPI report released on 12 August matched market expectations, prompting a rally in Treasuries. Markets now anticipate a 25bp rate cut in September, with the market-implied policy rate at 3% by end-2026, near the Fed's long-term equilibrium rate. HSBC sees that the threshold for significant declines in short-term interest rates remains elevated, whereas longer-dated securities appear attractively valued.

We expect CSOPUMM to continue to deliver stable yield in the near term. As of 2025/08/15, the fund has a net yield at 4.14%. ^

Loan contraction in China is unsurprising given the slow economy. Normally, this would lower bond yields, but with attention on the upcoming 15th Five-Year Plan, equity trading has increased, and caution prevails in the bond market. China's rates may not fully reflect economic conditions, as upbeat equity sentiment and fiscal expectations limit scope for lower rates. However, rate hikes are also unlikely, since fiscal policy often falls short and eventually prompts next round of rate cuts.

Looking at YTD performance as of 2025/08/15, CYC/CYB’s NAV gained +0.32% in CNY and gained +1.96% in USD*.
