As expected, the BoK forecasts for 2020 are much dimmer, stemming from the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. At year-end, the spread between prime office cap rates and Korean government bond yields (i.e., 5-year treasury bonds) remained at 290 basis points, which is above the 10-year average of approximately 250 basis points. As of mid-March 2020, the 5-year treasury bond yield had fallen 20-25 basis points due to the COVID-19 outbreak, but there have been no office transactions to gauge the outbreak’s effect on cap rates. Investment activity in the commercial office sector was robust in 2019 at $10 billion; however, we expect 2020 to be much slower. Prime office vacancy in ’s major business districts declined by nearly 2 percentage points to 7.7% in 2019, the lowest in ten years, but leasing may also slow given current COVID-19 concerns.
