The Malaysian REIT is expected to include domestic assets valued at about 7 billion to 8 billion ringgit ($1.7 billion to 1.9 billion), while the Singapore REIT will cover assets worth S$7 billion to S$8 billion ($5.4 billion to $6.1 billion), they said.

The Singapore REIT may include marquee properties such as South Beach Tower, South Beach Avenue, and IOI Central Boulevard Towers, one of the sources said.

The company has yet to decide the amount to be raised or the final asset mix, said the sources, who declined to be identified, as the matter is private.

In a emailed response to Reuters, IOI Properties Group said it was “strategically considering and reviewing various possibilities with regard to monetising our assets and capital management as we look to ensure the Group’s sustained growth ahead, specifically in Malaysia and Singapore”.

The review of potential REITs, particularly for Malaysian assets, was part of its 2026 strategic plans aimed at diversification, boosting earnings and ensuring long-term stability, it added.

The group has grown to have total assets of 46.9 billion ringgit as of June 2025, its annual report shows.

Its Malaysian portfolio includes IOI City Mall in Putrajaya, the country’s largest shopping complex, IOI Mall Damansara and office towers in the Klang Valley.

In Singapore, the group owns IOI Central Boulevard Towers in Marina Bay and recently acquired full ownership of the South Beach mixed-use development for S$835 million ($641.22 million).
