Net capital inflows into J-REIT funds in the first four months of 2014 have exceeded 230 billion yen, mainly from banks and investment trusts, and the prices of Japan’s ten-largest listed REITs have all increased at double-digit rates over the past year, driving the total market capitalization of all listed J-REITs above 8 trillion yen for the first time.
