Abstract

Using the Austock exempt property market, a retail property syndication performance index is constructed. This index is used to compare the performance of retail property syndicates with direct retail property and retail listed property trusts in Australia over 1998-2000, with the performance of property syndicates more highly correlated with direct property than listed property trusts. The future development of property syndicates in Australia is also critically assessed.
