RECOGNISING THE REIT OPPORTUNITYRECOGNISINGTHEREITOPPORTUNITY

A long-awaited turning point could foster renewed promise in REIT markets.

UPSIDE ON THE ROAD TO REIT RECOVERY

REIT valuations imply upside at a time when REIT returns versus equities have been historically substandard for a prolonged period. Amid signs of improving sentiment, potential for REITs to revert to long-term performance patterns is bolstered by solid fundamentals and the most stable rate environment in years. Secular trends, including aging demographics, AI-driven demand and limited construction in key categories, underpin the opportunity.

KEY THEMES IN GLOBAL REITS

Under current conditions, PGIM Real Estate is emphasising categories benefiting from defensive demand trends, including assisted living, data management and self-storage across 2025 and beyond.

A Partner with Expansive Scale, Resources and REITs Expertise

Overseeing $210 billion in global assets, PGIM Real Estate is one of the world’s largest real estate investment managers.
