The Global Real Estate Thematic Investing Strategy is designed to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of publicly traded real estate assets across the globe. This strategy focuses on targeting the most stable real estate markets with high Sharpe ratios to deliver stable returns for investors. The portfolio consists of roughly 30 publicly traded assets that are carefully selected based on their market capitalization, liquidity, financial strength, and comparison to industry peers. The selected assets are expected to generate consistent cash flows from rents and long-term capital appreciation from the appreciation in real estate values. The strategy runs on a daily interval and rebalances the portfolio every 30 days. The rebalancing process adjusts the portfolio's allocations to the target levels specified. The weights for each asset are derived from custom weights based on each company's financial strength, comparison to industry peers, and potential upside. The allocation structure aims to ensure that the portfolio is diversified across regions, real estate sectors, and company sizes. Overall, the Global Real Estate Thematic Investing Strategy is suitable for investors who seek exposure to the global real estate market and wish to diversify their investment portfolio with a focus on seeking stable returns.
