Another major REIT is entering the Malaysia’s capital market.
IOI Properties Group Berhad (IOIPG) has announced plans to establish and list IOIPG Malaysia Real Estate Investment Trust (IOIPG REIT) on Bursa Malaysia — backed by a sizeable RM7.58 billion portfolio of assets.
This isn’t just another IPO story.
It is a classic example of capital recycling at scale — and it could reshape both IOIPG’s balance sheet and Malaysia’s REIT landscape.
A Strategic Move to Unlock Value — But What Does It Mean for Investors?
📊 Key Highlights of the Proposed REIT
- Asset Size: ~RM7.58 billion
- Initial Units: 5.5 billion units
- Indicative Price: RM0.90 per unit
- IPO Offering: Up to 40% to investors
- Estimated Proceeds: RM4.62 billion

🏢 Assets Injected into the REIT
The REIT will include a diversified mix of:
- Retail: IOI City Mall
- Office: IOI City Towers
