During FY 2025 the trust completed roughly 300 million Singapore dollars of divestments at premiums to book value and executed acquisitions of about 210 million Singapore dollars in higher-yielding properties, including rental housing assets in Japan. Portfolio valuation recorded a net surplus of around 130 million Singapore dollars, mainly from stronger operating performance in Japan, France and Australia.

Asset enhancement initiatives totaling approximately 295 million Singapore dollars are under way or planned for properties in London, Paris, Sydney, Osaka and New York, with completion timelines running through 2027.

CapitaLand Ascott Trust aims to keep 70–75% of assets in serviced residences and hotels and 25–30% in rental housing and student accommodation, while preserving a disciplined capital structure amid interest-rate and currency volatility.
