Details	:	Cross-border real estate capital flows in Asia Pacific have been growing in recent years amid renewed interest from western investors and the rise of Asian institutional investors and fund managers in the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC). Cross-border real estate investors’ return profile is not only confined to property-related factors such as rental income and capital value changes but is also subject to exchange rate fluctuations between foreign and local currencies. The emergence of new investors in the regional property market and the surge of Asian outbound investment in recent years are additional factors ensuring that exchange rate movements are now becoming one of key considerations for real estate investors in Asia Pacific.
