STARHILL global reit ANNUAL REPORT FY 2016/17
Fair value hierarchy
The Group’s investment properties are valued based on unobservable inputs and classified in Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy. The different levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined in Note 24.
The following table shows the key unobservable inputs used in the valuation models of the investment properties as at
30 June 2017:
Investment properties
Key unobservable inputs
Inter-relationship between key unobservable
inputs and fair value measurement
Commercial properties
for leasing
·
Capitalisation rates from 3.75% to
8.25% (2016: from 3.90% to 8.25%)
·
Discount rates from 3.80% to 8.50%
(2016: from 3.70% to 8.50%)
The estimated fair value would increase
if capitalisation rates and discount rates
decrease.
Key unobservable inputs correspond to:
·
Capitalisation rates derived from specialised publications from the related markets and comparable transactions.
·
Discount rates, which are largely based on the risk-free rate of government bonds in the relevant market, adjusted
for a risk premium to reflect the increased risk of investing in the asset class.
