Future Direction
To increase portfolio resilience and provide sustainable growth for unitholders, Link introduced the Link 3.0 strategy, which focuses on asset optimization, operating platform enhancement, and fund management.
Under the Link 3.0 Strategy, organic growth is pursued through active asset management, diversifying income sources through yield-accretive investments and asset recycling. By adopting an asset-light strategy, Link seeks to collaborate with passive, private equity partners to generate fee income and enhance returns for unitholders.
Link will be maintaining its focus on the Asia Pacific region, actively exploring investment opportunities in the tier-one cities of Mainland China, Australia, Singapore, and its home base, Hong Kong. Working with capital partners offers the benefits of pooled resources, expertise, and growth in assets under management, fee income, and profitability. Capital partnerships also support partners' capital deployment needs in the region.
As an influential independent real estate asset manager in the Asia Pacific, Link provides unique opportunities for investors interested in tapping into regional growth and allocating capital.
