FY07 average gross yield for Malaysian REITs is at 6.8% against 10 years MGS yield of 3.9% providing a difference of 2.9% spread. As reflected in the below table, compared to other risk free investment benchmarks such as fixed deposits, EPF return and Merdeka Bonds, the REITs’ yield still stand above the crowd.
