What Keppel DC REIT does

Asia's largest pure-play data center REIT, owning data center properties across Asia-Pacific and Europe.

Collects rent under long leases on data-centre buildings, many with fixed annual increases, and often passes power costs on to tenants, so cash flow is steady and mainly depends on occupancy and lease renewals. Assets sit in Singapore and across Asia-Pacific and Europe. The Keppel group sponsors and manages it, and supplies acquisition candidates.

In one line: Asia's largest pure-play data center REIT.
