    [SINGAPORE] A new private investment vehicle said to be backed by Andre Tanoto has been quietly acquiring retail assets in recent months.

    The vehicle, associated with Altallo Asset Management, is said to have completed in December the purchase of four large-format Housing & Development Board (HDB) retail units in Bukit Merah Central and near the Toa Payoh, Ang Mo Kio and Clementi MRT stations. The total price is said to be in the S$160 million-plus range.

    The units were sold by Lian Beng Group, which acquired them at S$151 million in 2016.
