The interest rate hiking cycle has
peaked with inflationary pressures

easing.

Industrial property is positioned to

benefit from an easing monetary cycle.

PFI is strongly positioned to capitalise

on its development pipeline of ~$388M.

Attractive returns can be generated by

leveraging PFI’s development expertise

and experienced team.

Despite recent property sector

headwinds, underlying fundamentals of

industrial property remain sound:

vacancy remains low and reduced new

supply is expected to come to market.

PFI’s portfolio under-renting of ~16%

provides embedded growth.
