"That is extreme if you're so heavily over-weighting real estate in Singapore (and/or in the region). Why would that specific sector (real estate) and that specific geography both necessarily outperform the other parts of the investable world? What's wrong with the pharmaceutical industry, the renewable energy industry, the Web/mobile industry, the entertainment industry, the heavy construction equipment industry, the financial services industry, the food and beverage industry, or any of the other sectors that are not real estate?"
I love constructive criticisms as I am always looking to improve the quality of my portfolio. His feedback got me thinking. Am I really too over-weighted in Singapore real estate? So I decided to collate the information on the geographical diversification and tenant trade sector mix of all my vested REITs. In the end, I found out that my portfolio is rather over-weighted on the Australia, Europe & China markets instead. The top tenants are sufficiently diverse too.

Hi DW, there's an announcement on MLT that 1st Nov, there'll an advance payment of dividend for those unit holders that hold stocks from the period of July to Sept.
I am not sure if my understanding is correct?
Hope you can enlighten me on this.
Many thanks!
