Grade-A commercial properties in Hong Kong's central business district yielded 2.85 per cent and New York's 3.29 per cent after excluding tenant incentives, the Savills/Deakin University World Office Yield Spectrum, released on Monday, showed. San Francisco and Singapore had the highest effective yields, at 5.39 per cent and 4.85 per cent respectively.
