CLIM vs SRET

CLIMDClimate Global-Climate Resilient REIT Index ETF

SRETBGlobal X SuperDividend REIT ETF

In short

CLIM Most real estate ETFs slice the sector by property type. CLIM sorts REITs by climate resilience and tracks an index built on that idea, a genuinely narrow corner of the group with a fee to match.

SRET Most global real estate ETFs rank landlords by size. SRET flips it: a tight basket of about 29 REITs worldwide chosen off a SuperDividend yield screen, paid out monthly. A yield-first take in a market-cap-first cohort.

Stated mandate

CLIM The Fund seeks investment results that generally correspond, before fees and expenses, to the total return of its benchmark.

SRET SRET seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the Solactive Global SuperDividend ® REIT Index.

Why people hold it

• CLIM REITs and related real estate companies chosen by a climate resilience screen rather than property type or geography. Nothing else in its real estate ETF group is built that way.
• Rules-based, not manager discretion: it tracks the Climate Resilient REIT Index and seeks that index's total return before fees and expenses.
• The basket is the strong part. On holdings quality and spread across names, it stands near the top of its real estate ETF group.

• SRET Yield is the screen, not an afterthought. The Solactive Global SuperDividend REIT Index sorts on payout instead of market cap, so big landlords don't automatically get big weights.
• Distributions land monthly rather than quarterly, which lines the cash flow up with how rent actually arrives.
• Global by design: the mandate reaches beyond US REITs, and the fund has run through a full real estate cycle since its 2015 launch.

Worth knowing

• CLIM 0.90% a year, well above the median real estate ETF fee. NURE (0.35%) and MORT (0.43%) cost a fraction, though neither runs a climate screen.
• Launched in 2026, still small and thinly traded. Light volume can mean a wider gap between buy and sell prices at the moment you trade.
• Cash comes back once or twice a year, not monthly or quarterly.

• SRET At 0.58% it runs above the 0.50% typical for global real estate funds, and far above index majors like REET (0.14%) and VNQI (0.12%).
• Around 29 holdings means each name pulls real weight, and a yield screen reshuffles the roster as payouts change.
• It's a smaller, thinly traded fund, so spreads can widen. Limit orders do more work here than with the cohort's giants.
