What Is Mapletree Anson?
Mapletree Anson is a premium Grade A office tower at 60 Anson Road, Tanjong Pagar, Singapore’s core CBD. Completed in 2009, it offers 19 storeys of commercial space with a net lettable area (NLA) of approximately 311,200 sq ft.
Its standout advantage is direct connectivity to Tanjong Pagar MRT station (East-West Line) via a covered linkway. That makes it one of the most accessible Grade A buildings in Singapore — a key selling point for financial services, professional services and technology tenants who need to attract talent.
The building targets blue-chip multinational occupiers. Specific tenant names are not publicly disclosed, but the profile is consistent with the rest of MPACT’s Singapore office portfolio: long leases, high credit-quality tenants, and minimal short-term churn risk.
Who Owns Mapletree Anson?
Mapletree Anson is 100% owned by Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust (MPACT, SGX: N2IU). MPACT is managed by Mapletree Investments Pte Ltd, the real estate arm of Temasek Holdings, Singapore’s sovereign investment company.
MPACT was formed in November 2022 through the merger of Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT) and Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust (MNACT). MCT had owned Mapletree Anson since its IPO in 2011. The building is now one of five Singapore assets in MPACT’s 18-property portfolio spanning Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Japan and South Korea.
You cannot buy Mapletree Anson directly. The practical route for retail investors is to buy MPACT units on the SGX via a brokerage. The building’s rental income flows into MPACT’s distributable income and is paid out as quarterly DPU to unitholders.

Mapletree Anson’s Role in the MPACT Portfolio
MPACT holds 18 properties across 5 markets. In Singapore, it owns five assets: VivoCity (retail), Mapletree Business City I & II (business park), mTower (office), and Mapletree Anson (office). VivoCity is the crown jewel — it alone contributes roughly 32% of NPI. Mapletree Anson contributes approximately 8%.
That might sound small, but 8% of a S$15.2 billion portfolio is still a meaningful income driver. And because Mapletree Anson is a premium Grade A CBD asset with MRT connectivity, it commands among the highest per-sq-ft rents in MPACT’s portfolio — keeping its yield contribution punching above its size.
| Property | Type | Approx. NPI Share | Occupancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| VivoCity | Retail Mall | ~32% | 99.7% |
| MBC I & II | Business Park | ~28% | 92.4% |
| mTower | Office | ~14% | 96.3% |
| Mapletree Anson | Office (CBD) | ~8% | 93.8% |
| MLHF | Business Park | ~10% | 91.0% |

Occupancy and Financial Performance
Mapletree Anson’s 93.8% occupancy rate in FY2026 is meaningfully above Singapore’s overall CBD Grade A office average of approximately 89%, according to CBRE research. This outperformance reflects the building’s premium connectivity and the resilience of demand from financial sector tenants in Tanjong Pagar.
Singapore’s CBD office market has been under pressure from hybrid working trends and cost-consciousness among multinationals. Yet Grade A buildings with MRT connectivity have held up better than secondary locations. Mapletree Anson is a direct beneficiary of this flight-to-quality dynamic.
From a financial perspective, the building contributes steady, recurring NPI to MPACT’s distributions. MPACT’s Singapore office portfolio — which includes Mapletree Anson and mTower — has shown stable occupancy through multiple business cycles, providing a counterbalance to the more volatile overseas portfolio (particularly Hong Kong).

MPACT DPU and Yield History
MPACT pays distributions quarterly. Here is the recent DPU history to help you assess yield sustainability:
| Financial Year | DPU (S cents) | YoY Change |
|---|---|---|
| FY2023 | 9.37¢ | — |
| FY2024 | 8.59¢ | -8.3% |
| FY2025 | 8.13¢ | -5.4% |
| FY2026 | 7.97¢ | -2.0% |
Source: MPACT Annual Reports FY2023–FY2026. FY ends 31 March.
DPU has declined gradually from FY2023 peaks, primarily reflecting higher financing costs and softer overseas income from the Hong Kong and China portfolios. Singapore assets including Mapletree Anson have remained stable. At around S$1.33 per unit (June 2026), the FY2026 DPU of 7.97¢ implies an annualised yield of approximately 6.0% — attractive versus Singapore savings bonds and T-bills. See the CPF investment strategy guide for a comparison of yield options using CPF OA funds.
MPACT vs Peer S-REITs
| REIT | Yield (FY2026) | Gearing | P/NAV | Sector |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MPACT (N2IU) | ~6.0% | 40.7% | 0.72x | Commercial (SG+Asia) |
| CapitaLand IntCom (C38U) | ~5.6% | 39.2% | 0.83x | Retail/Office |
| Suntec REIT (T82U) | ~6.5% | 42.8% | 0.63x | Office/Retail |
| OUE REIT (TS0U) | ~6.8% | 38.5% | 0.52x | Office/Hospitality |
Source: SGX data, REIT annual reports, June 2026. Yields based on trailing DPU ÷ current unit price. Not a buy/sell recommendation.
MPACT trades at a deeper P/NAV discount (0.72x) than CapitaLand IntCom, partly reflecting uncertainty around its overseas portfolio recovery. If you believe Hong Kong and North Asia assets stabilise, that discount could narrow — providing capital upside on top of the ~6.0% yield.
