About FREAX

Nuveen Real Estate Securities Fund Class A is a mutual fund specializing in investments within the real estate sector. Its primary objective is to deliver above-average current income alongside long-term capital appreciation by allocating at least 80% of its assets to income-producing common stocks of publicly traded companies operating in the real estate industry. The fund emphasizes exposure to U.S. equity real estate investment trusts (REITs), but its portfolio also allows for up to 15% allocation to non-U.S. and emerging market securities, supporting geographical and sectoral diversification. Its holdings are typically concentrated in leading commercial real estate firms spanning various property types such as healthcare, industrial, residential, and data centers. Welltower Inc., Prologis Inc., and Equinix Inc. are among its principal holdings. Designed for investors seeking real asset exposure, the fund plays a significant role in providing liquidity, diversification, and income potential within the broader equity market through professional management of real estate equities.
