The aim of this thesis is to examine performance and relationship between the US and Asian REITs indices. We find two-year (2005/3/10~2007/3/12) return of T-REITs is 15.87%, which is much lower than the return of US, Japan and Singapore. However, T-REITs has the lowest risk in selected sample countries because the lowest VaRs is found. We estimate one-day horizon holding periods VaRs and find T-REITs¡¦ performance is better than other country by the Sharpe Ratio of VaRs. The Granger causality approach indicates some lead-lag relationships between these REITs. The NAREIT EQUITY index is leading the Hong-Kong and Singapore REITs indices; Singapore REITs index is leading the J-REITs index; J-REITs index is leading the NAREIT EQUITY index. However, Causality tests show no significant lead-lag relationships between Taiwan REITs market and other REITs markets.
