REIT Manager Rating Assessment Framework
The Pakistan Credit Rating Agency (PACRA) has issued this assessment framework to standardize the evaluation and assignment of REIT Manager Ratings (RM1–RM5) for Real Estate Investment Trust Management Companies. The methodology mandates a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative analysis of seven critical factors, including profile, ownership stability, governance effectiveness, management competency, investment risk, customer relationships, and historical performance. By benchmarking REIT Management Companies against their peer universe and aligning with Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan regulations, the framework ensures transparent rating scales, clear succession planning, robust third-party oversight, and consistent financial support from major shareholders.
