Johannesburg, 24 March 2025: Trading under the alpha code, RWINC, the fund is structured to mitigate capital loss relative to market movements, as the ETF was built to balance income generation with market resilience. The ETF is designed to give investors exposure to global properties by replicating and tracking the Reitway Global Property Index.
Reitway Global is a niche investment management firm, providing products dedicated to Global Listed Property. The company has a concentrated approach that emphasises the global sector perspective aiming to create and preserve wealth over the medium and long term. By focusing on REITs, Reitway provides investors with an opportunity to diversify their portfolio, providing access to listed property stocks in the Americas, Asia Pacific, Europe and the Middle East.
“Our diverse product range reflects deep insights into investor preferences. We understand that no single fund can meet all objectives, so we aim to provide specialised options across the Global REIT spectrum,” said Greg Rawlins, CEO of Reitway Global.
Unlike Reitway’s existing array of ETFs which prioritise total return, this new ETF is specifically tailored for income-focused investors. The fund will track a custom index co-developed with Amsterdam-based Global Property Research and Solactive, based in Frankfurt, providing investors exposure to global expertise in the real estate market.
“The Income ETF exemplifies our guiding principle: Acknowledging Passive, Embracing Active,” added Rawlins. “This marks Reitway’s first income-focused ETF, designed to deliver higher immediate yield extracted from the Global REIT universe.”
Adèle Hattingh, Business Development and Exchange Traded Products Manager at the JSE, has welcomed the listing of the Reitway Global Property Income Prescient ETF on the JSE, highlighting that it will enable South African investors to further diversify their portfolios.
“We are committed to a diverse range of investment products that meet the evolving needs of our investors,” said Hattingh. “We welcome another listing that provides local investors an opportunity to access and participate in global property markets.”
The listing of the Reitway Global Property Income Prescient ETF increases the number of ETFs listed on the JSE to 119 with a total market cap of R230.7 billion.
