  • Property Investment 32
    REVIEW OF OPERATIONS PROPERTY INVESTMENT 32 The Group witnessed an active start to leasing in the second half of 2000, but the overall leasing market slowed since the beginning of 2001. This is attributed primarily to the softening of the US economy, which resulted in lower economic growth in Hong Kong and hence a slow leasing market. Despite this, the Group’s rental portfolio maintained a satisfactory level of performance. Average occupancy of the Group’s investment properties in Hong Kong remained high at 95 per cent. Excluding contributions from jointly controlled entities, gross rental income for the year under review rose marginally by 1.9 per cent to HK$5,392 million, while net rental income remained steady at HK$4,073 million. If the Group’s share of rental income from jointly controlled entities was included, total gross rental income would have increased by 3.7 per cent to HK$5,877 million for the year. Net rental income rose a modest 1.7 per cent to HK$4,401 million.
