Alphabeta Building is the third London property that SML is acquiring following the purchase of New Brook Building in May 2013 and Warwick House in September 2014.

New Brook was subsequently sold for a 45% gain.

SML is bulking up its commercial property portfolio in gateway cities overseas for a potential securitisation down the road.

Earlier in May, the group successfully listed its industrial real estate arm in Greater Jakarta on the Indonesia bourse. We have a Buy rating on the stock with a SGD1.01 TP.
