- NIPPON REIT recognizes that it is an essential strategy to implement asset replacement at the right time in order to maintain and improve portfolio competitiveness from a medium-tolong-term perspective while expanding AUM.
- The assets to be transferred were selected based on "Tiering-PJ" analyses which is conducted annually as part of the Asset Manager's medium-tolong-term management strategy. In order to maintain and improve portfolio competitiveness with a view to manage in a medium-to-long-term perspective of (a) optimizing capex plan based on the building age, and (b) eliminating concerns about a decline in internal growth potential in property analysis on profitability, liquidity and property characteristics.
