AbstractHong Kong is one of the most dynamic commercial property markets in Asia. With the recent development of REITs in Asia, HK-REITs have become an important property investment vehicle in Hong Kong since 2005. This paper assesses the significance, risk-adjusted performance and portfolio diversification benefits of HK-REITs in a mixed-asset portfolio in Hong Kong over 2005-2008. The impact of the global financial crisis on HK-REITs and the ongoing strategic development of HK-REITs are also assessed. HK-REITs are seen to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns and to have been robust during the GFC with superior risk-adjusted returns to other listed asset classes, but some loss of diversification benefits was also evident in the GFC.
