This will be supported by the funds' attractive returns relative to bank deposits and fixed income investments, an increase in the number of new properties for rent and developers' rising need for funds. Regulatory changes to move towards a real estate investment trust structure for these funds will also have a positive impact on the sector's growth. Property investment funds have expanded rapidly in the past two years in Thailand. The market capitalisation of property funds listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand rose to THB243.0bn (USD7.5bn) at end-2013 from THB96.5bn at end-2011, while the number of funds increased to 46 from 33. Funds investing in office buildings accounted for 35% of the total market capitalisation, while those investing in retails properties made up 32%, warehouses and factories accounted for 15%, and hotels and serviced apartments accounted for 10%. Retail space in Bangkok and its suburbs is likely to increase by 700,000-800,000 square meters (sqm) in 2014, up about 11%-12% yoy.
