Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the weighting for CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust being reduced?
Following the merger of CapitaLand Mall Trust and CapitaLand Commercial Trust in October 2020, the new entity, CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust, held a combined weighting of approximately 20%.
iEdge S-REIT Leader Index constituents will have their index weights capped at 10% at each semi-annual rebalance date in March and September.
The new weighting for CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust in the REIT+ portfolio reflects this capping methodology.
What is the rationale for the new portfolio inclusions and exclusion?
The inclusion of Lendlease Global Commercial REIT in REIT+ reflects its inclusion in the iEdge S-REIT Leaders Index.
Additionally, REIT+ is an optimized portfolio of 20 REITs which seeks to track the iEdge S-REIT Leaders Index as closely as possible to enhance its overall performance. By also excluding SPH REIT and including AIMS APAC REIT, the REIT+ portfolio is able to achieve a minimal tracking error of 0.5%.
