MELBOURNE, Australia--Shopping-center owner Westfield Corp. (WFD.AU) has sold five assets in the U.S. for US$1.1 billion, part of its strategy to narrow its focus on flagship operations in leading markets.

Proceeds from the sale will be used initially to pay down debt and will be redeployed in time toward Westfield's US$11.4 billion development program, the company said Monday.
