ARA H-Trust is a stapled group comprising ARA H-REIT and ARA H-BT. ARA H-REIT is set up to hold the underlying hotels. ARA H-BT is an active business trust set up to own the operational assets of the hotels. ARA H-BT extends shareholder's loans to the hotel holding companies to facilitate the repatriation of cashflows to Singapore.
