Cuscaden Peak should focus on growing SPH’s retail and student housing Reits
Leslie Yee
IT HAS been just over 8 months since Cuscaden Peak submitted a proposal to the board of directors of Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) to acquire all the shares of SPH.
Cuscaden has since prevailed over Keppel Corp in the fight for SPH, which was delisted in May. Resulting from acquiring SPH, Cuscaden made a mandatory chain offer for SPH Reit (real estate investment trust).
The chain offer for SPH Reit closed on Jun 30, 2022, with Cuscaden and its concert parties ending up with a stake of 61.7 per cent in SPH Reit.
