Japan's Croesus delays Singapore share listing: IFR

Croesus Retail Trust (CRT), which focuses on retail real estate in Japan, postponed a Singapore initial public offering of about $800 million because of weak markets, IFR reported on Wednesday, citing sources close to the deal.

The trust, which is part-owned by Marubeni Corp. and Daiwa House Industry Co., decided to delay the deal until early 2013 after meeting potential investors the past two weeks, added IFR, a Thomson Reuters publication.

The IPO was marketed to investors at an indicative yield in the high 7% range for fiscal year 2013 and in the low 8% range for fiscal 2014, a source with knowledge of the deal said previously.

Citigroup and DBS Group Holdings were joint global coordinators of the IPO, with Standard Chartered also acting as a bookrunner.
