UBS FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Green UCITS ETF USD dis

What this fund is

UBS FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Green UCITS ETF USD dis is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from UBS, traded under the ticker GREIT (ISIN IE000H3AH951). In a single purchase you get a diversified basket of holdings rather than a stake in just one business. In plain terms it is about owning listed property companies (REITs), which earn rent from buildings and usually pass much of it on to investors, spread across its target market. It follows the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Green index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include REALTY INCOME CORP, WELLTOWER INC and EQUINIX INC. Its biggest country exposures are ~40.2% United States.

By industry it concentrates most in ~40.2% Real Estate. It is typically held as a diversifier — a slice that behaves differently from mainstream shares — rather than as a portfolio's main engine. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.25% a year — about €25 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. It is a distributing share class — dividends are paid to you as cash rather than reinvested, and over the last year it paid out roughly 1.35% (its trailing yield). It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in Ireland and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in USD.

Its price has swung about 11.4% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2024. Like any investment, it can lose value as well as gain, and what it did before does not predict what it will do next. (Fund data sourced from UBS.)
