CapitaLand Investment has unveiled its strategic initiatives for 2025 during its Corporate Day in Kuala Lumpur, focusing on expanding its funds under management (FUM) and enhancing platform synergies. The company aims to reach S$200 billion in FUM by the second half of 2025, driven by increased capital deployment and strategic alignments.
The company reported a significant increase in capital deployment, with S$3.2b invested year-to-date through private funds and real estate investment trusts (REITs), marking a 79% year-on-year growth. Additionally, CapitaLand Investment has raised S$2.6b in total equity, a 1.3 times increase compared to the previous year. These efforts are part of a broader strategy to fuel growth in key areas such as lodging, logistics, and private credit.
CapitaLand Investment is also focusing on expanding its global reach. The company has earmarked over S$700m for strategic co-investments and is aligning its operations with partners SCCP and Wingate to unlock platform synergies. This alignment is expected to contribute significantly to the company’s FUM ambitions.
The company’s listed funds platform in the Asia-Pacific region has also seen robust growth, with a 16% year-on-year increase in listed FUM, reaching S$71b. The recent listing of CapitaLand Commercial C-REIT on the Shanghai Stock Exchange has further bolstered its institutional subscription rates.
Looking ahead, CapitaLand Investment plans to continue its thematic strategies, particularly in private funds, with a target of over S$2b in committed FUM within the next 12 months. The company is poised to accelerate its growth in the second half of 2025, leveraging its diversified brand strategy and strategic partnerships.
