The year 2021 ended with the news that Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust (SGX:RW0U) and Mapletree Commercial Trust (SGX:N2IU) have proposed a merger – with the enlarged REIT to be renamed as Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust. Should the proposal be approved by unitholders of both REITs, the merged entity will become the 7th largest REIT in Asia (by market capitalisation.)
I have studied the documents provided by the REITs and in this post, you’ll find a summary of what the proposed transaction entails, rationale behind it, along with some key dates to take note of. On top of that, you’ll also read about my thoughts about it:

I’ve made my investment decision on the Singapore bank back in early-March 2020, when its share price fell to my buy target price of $23.26 – based on this price, along with its dividend payout of 130.0 cents/share in FY2019, the yield was 5.6% (which satisfied my requirement of a yield of at least 4.0% for all of my investments.)
No doubt its share price took a huge dive (by $5.98, or 25.7% from my buy price) shortly after due to the Covid-19 pandemic, I held on to my positions (the only pity was I did not increase my investments in the bank at that point in time to bring down my average price, and at the same time, bring up the yield) for the bank’s underlying business fundamentals continued to remain intact.
