Renovation of Lok Fu Plaza
CEO of The Link conducting a site visit during the renovation of Lok Fu Plaza.
​The Link REIT is the only internally-managed REIT in Asia.  The structure binds the Manager and the REIT together, further aligning the interests of the two with the absence of a separate sponsor or shareholder for the REIT manager.  The independent Trustee serves as an added governance security as it is responsible for the safe custody of The Link REIT’s assets.
 
Recognizing that our units are widely held by Unitholders around the world and there is no controlling Unitholder, the Board’s function in corporate governance is viewed as vital.  The Board is responsible for the overall governance of The Link REIT.  It consists mainly of independent non-executive directors who are seasoned professionals from legal, accounting, banking, academic, surveying, architectural and corporate fields.  The Board has also established various Board Committees to assist in discharging its responsibilities.  These include Audit Committee, Finance and Investment Committee, Human Resources and Compensation CommitteeNomination Committee and Remuneration Committee.
