Bourse operator creates real estate subsidiary

PHILSTAR/KRIZ JOHN ROSALES
THE Philippine Stock Exchange, Inc. (PSE) will establish a new subsidiary that will handle its real estate assets, including its old office in Ayala Avenue, Makati City. 

In a disclosure posted on Thursday, the PSE said its board of directors has approved the incorporation of PSE Realty, Inc. (PRI). The wholly-owned unit will have a capitalization of P1 billion, of which P701.80 million will be subscribed and paid-up. 

The PSE earlier said that it can either sell the office spaces in Ayala Tower One or rent them out instead. 

The bourse operator moved out of its office in Ayala Tower One last February, in favor of the new PSE tower along Bonifacio High Street. The new building stands 26-storeys high and has a gross leasable area of 30,000 square meters. Aside from the PSE, the building also houses more than 100 active trading participants. 

The PSE has already sold its old office, the PSE Tektite Building in Ortigas Center, to Philippine Realty Holdings Corp. (Philrealty) for P257.18 million in August last year. Philrealty was the developer of the Tektite Building. — Arra B. Francia
