Jersey’s Momentum Builds in South East Asia

22 Apr 2026

Our activity across South East Asia has continued to build in April, with a series of targeted engagements in Singapore and Malaysia highlighting strong regional interest in UK real estate and Jersey’s role as a trusted international finance centre.

On 14 April, an exclusive European and UK real estate roundtable was hosted in Singapore in partnership with Berkeley Group and Suntera Global. This was followed by a second roundtable in Malaysia on 21 April, delivered with Suntera Global, focussing on UK real estate.

Across both sessions, senior professionals from real estate, legal and advisory sectors explored the evolving UK market. While the real estate has undergone a significant repricing cycle in recent years, discussions reflected growing optimism, with renewed investor interest emerging since the second half of 2025, particularly across logistics, living and selected commercial assets.

Roundtable attendees also discussed the increasing in fundraising activity across Singapore and Malaysia for UK real estate strategies, reflecting the region’s long-standing and strategic allocation to the sector, from logistics and student accommodation to retail and mixed-use developments.

Discussions reinforced Jersey’s role in facilitating cross-border investment, with its expertise in structuring and its stable, well-regulated environment continuing to support global capital flows into the UK market.

These engagements build on our ongoing activity across Asia, including recent activity in Hong Kong SAR, demonstrating our commitment to the region and reinforcing Jersey’s position as a leading jurisdiction for structuring cross-border real estate investment.
