Top 5 Rankings Across Indicators While the rankings across categories are derived from a statistical assessment, actual on-ground development may diverge due to a range of qualitative factors, including market maturity, overall size, and broader economic conditions. For instance, the top five markets in terms of Yield on Cost (YoC) also tend to have some of the least active development pipelines. However, factors such as elevated rental rates in mature markets like Singapore contribute to higher yields, despite limited new supply. This highlights the importance of interpreting rankings in context, rather than in isolation.
