If I recall, Croesus hedge at least 80% of their currency exposure so the dividend payout in SGD is mitigated. Also, Japan is expected to maintain ultra low interest rates for a very long time so interest rate risk is much lower vs Singapore REITS. Also, the current yield for Croesus is about 8.5%, which is much higher than MGCT yield of about 6%.
