IFGLCiShares International Developed Real Estate ETF

In short

HAUZ The bargain passport for property: HAUZ owns real estate companies everywhere except the US, developed and emerging alike, for 0.10% a year. One of the cheapest ways to own the rest of the world's landlords.

IFGL The 2007 original in overseas property: one index, developed markets outside the US, no emerging-market detour, no US REITs. About 300 names, cash paid quarterly, 0.50% a year with no waiver trimming it.

Stated mandate

HAUZ The fund seeks investment results that generally correspond to the performance of an iSTOXX Developed and Emerging benchmark.

IFGL The fund seeks to track an index of real estate equities in developed non-U.S. markets.

Why people hold it

  • HAUZ Charges 0.10% a year against a 0.50% median for global real estate funds, undercutting even the low-cost giants VNQI (0.12%) and REET (0.14%).
  • The US is deliberately left out. The index covers developed and emerging markets outside America, so it sits beside a domestic REIT holding instead of doubling it.dws.com
  • About 400 holdings across dozens of markets, weighted by free float, so it owns the world's big listed property names rather than making country bets.dws.com
  • Running since 2013 as a plain index tracker, and its portfolio lines up closely with the benchmark it promises.
  • IFGL Launched November 2007, it predates the ex-US property funds that followed (VNQI in 2010, REET in 2014) and carries nearly two decades of live history.vanguard.comsec.gov
  • Developed markets only. Its FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed ex US benchmark leaves out emerging-market property, which the indexes behind VNQI and REET both include.vanguard.comsec.gov
  • Roughly 300 landlords and property names spread across developed markets outside the US, with distributions on a quarterly schedule.blackrock.com

Worth knowing

  • HAUZ One sector, one theme. Property equities move with interest rates and credit, and this fund's swings have been wider than most of what we grade.
  • Distributions arrive once or twice a year, not monthly, so the income shows up lumpy.
  • Moderate trading volume rather than headline volume, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads than the busiest global real estate funds.
  • IFGL Fee is 0.50% with no waiver, near the category norm, while HAUZ (0.10%) and VNQI (0.12%) reach similar overseas property for a fraction of that.
  • One of the lighter-traded names in its category, on a modest asset base, which tends to show up as wider bid-ask spreads than the category giants.
  • No US real estate at all by design, so it covers one side of the global property market rather than the whole map.
