    FIRST, it was NTUC Income Insurance that began a sale process for its Income At Raffles office building in Collyer Quay. Then, another co-operative in the NTUC stable, Mercatus, is now said to have bundled 4 of its retail properties in Singapore for sale.

    JP Morgan is marketing the bundled package and the price expectation is “in excess of S$4 billion”, The Business Times understands.

    The 4 retail assets are: Jurong Point, AMK Hub in Ang Mo Kio, Mercatus’ half-stake in Nex (integrated with the Serangoon bus interchange and MRT station) and some 110,000 sq ft of strata space in Thomson Plaza (roughly half of the mall) — totalling about 1.5 million sq ft of net lettable area (NLA).
