In the early years, it required our staff to believe in a business model that was relatively untested in Singapore, and execute it nimbly and well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr Hiew took the helm of Mapletree in 2003. Backed by a strong conviction that Mapletree needed to be asset light and maximise its capital efficiency to buffer against the volatilities of real estate cycles, he sought to build a strong real estate capital management business for long-term stable earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working together with the Mapletree team, a business model that integrated the roles of real estate developer, investor and capital manager was established that would see the Group redevelop much of the aging assets it owned into consistently high-yielding properties. The Group also sponsored and developed a number of REITs and private funds, and as it continues to do so, it will be able to source, identify and underwrite other opportunistic ventures, enabling Mapletree to grow quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Mapletree manages four REITs, which as of 31 March 2015 have a combined market capitalisation of over $12 billion \u2013 making up 17 per cent of the Singapore REIT industry\u2019s market value of over $70 billion . It also manages six private real estate funds, which together hold a diverse portfolio of assets in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The establishment of these capital management platforms marks the Group\u2019s transformation into a fast-growing real estate capital management company. Over the years, Mapletree has also earned a reputation as an expert in identifying under-performing properties that it acquires, creates value by redeveloping or retrofitting, and then re-launching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the financial year ended 31 March 2014 (\u201cFY 13\/14\u201d), Mapletree posted a profit after tax and minority interests (\u201cPATMI\u201d) of $859.4 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assets under management (\u201cAUM\u201d) grew to $24.6 billion \u2013 10 times the $2.3 billion held a decade ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of shareholders\u2019 value added, shareholders\u2019 fund grew to $8.3 billion from $2.2 billion over the same period, while net asset value (\u201cNAV\u201d) achieved a 10-year compounded annual growth rate (\u201cCAGR\u201d) of 15.3 per cent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Added Mr Hiew: \u201cThis award therefore belongs to everyone at Mapletree. The story behind the Group\u2019s success is about a team that is consistent and disciplined in executing our business model. This requires both real estate and financial skills sets, and which are developed over time through hard work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d therefore like to thank all Mapletree directors and employees for the effort and commitment they have put in over the years to help build the company to where it is today. With a strong team in place, I believe that we will continue to grow going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":189,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_trash_the_other_posts":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"editor_notices":[]},"tags":[627,114],"newsroom-category":[112],"csr-category":[],"class_list":["post-3530","newsroom","type-newsroom","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-627","tag-news"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Mapletree Group CEO is Outstanding CEO of the Year at Singapore Business Awards 2015 - MIPL Japan<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/mapletree-stag.altis.cloud\/jp\/newsroom\/mapletree-group-ceo-is-outstanding-ceo-of-the-year-at-singapore-business-awards-2015\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Mapletree Group CEO is Outstanding CEO of the Year at Singapore Business Awards 2015 - MIPL Japan\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SINGAPORE \u2013 Mapletree Investments Pte Ltd (\u201cMapletree\u201d or the \u201cGroup\u201d) is pleased to announce that its Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr Hiew Yoon Khong (\u90b1\u8fd0\u5eb7), has been named \u2018Outstanding Chief Executive Officer of the Year 2014\u2019 at the Singapore Business Awards 2015.
