CapitaCom Trust vs CapitaMall Trust?

Capitaland Commercial Trust and Capitaland Mall Trust will be merging soon to form Capitaland Integrated Commercial Trust. All unitholders of Capitaland Com Trust would be issued 0.72 new CMT units and $0.259 in cash per unit.

As such I believe it would be better if you were to buy Capitaland Mall Trust else you may risk having odd lots.​​​

Hi anon,

I'd say you can buy CMT instead of CCT if you are looking at holding long term. CCT unit holders will be given CMT shares plus cash, which may be an issue as you'll end up with odd lots. So it's a lot easier to just buy CMT in my view.

If you really buy CCT, you'll probably end up with some uneven (lot size wise) number of CMT shares and spare cash. So unless you don't mind this, if not, CMT is a better choice long term.
