APAC guides

Currency & rent normalization

Local convention in APAC: Local currency per sqft per month (most APAC) or per tsubo per month (Japan). Local currencies in active institutional use: SGD / JPY / HKD / AUD / KRW / INR / CNY. Lease regime: Short 2–3 year terms standard. Singapore/HK: net floor area. Japan: contract by tsubo (3.3 sqm). Class A Atlas normalizes all city-level rent benchmarks to USD per sqft per year using a trailing 90-day FX average so cross-region comparisons stay apples-to-apples; per-city pages show both the local quotation and the normalized USD figure.
