The focus is on real estate investments that display a high degree of continuity in the generation of rental income and stable real estate value development. The fund thus stands out due to its high intrinsic value and earnings strength. In particular, the investor benefits from the professional fundamental investment approach of the fund managers, who have many years of experience and a strong performance track record.

The key figures are based on publicly available information from third-party providers on the reporting date. Not all third-party providers publish information, which is why the degree of coverage is not necessarily 100%. The calculation methods are harmonised. This leads to retrospective corrections, which we apply in each case.

A regular ESG dialogue with all relevant market players provides sustained support to developments ensuring the availability of transparent and comparable information.

The investment objective and sustainability policy of SF Property Selection Fund are defined in the prospectus with integrated fund contract.

Sustainability Approach

ESG Engagement

The portfolio manager engages in an individual dialogue about sustainability aspects with every provider of investment solutions. The purpose of this approach to ESG engagement is to ensure that all providers adopt the practice of ESG reporting and provide transparent and comparable information that can be used to make specific investment decisions.

Exercise of Voting Rights

Directives and guidelines that are regularly reviewed set out the process for exercising voting rights. The Fund's management adheres to the 2016 guidelines of economiesuisse and integrates selected best practice criteria into its corporate governance processes.

In order to keep pace with the momentum of the sustainability movement, the sustainability strategy and sustainability approaches are systematically revised at least once every five years and amended, if needed.
