About RRESX
The Russell Investments Global Real Estate Securities Fund Class S is an open-end mutual fund specializing in global real estate securities. Its primary objective is to deliver both current income and long-term capital growth by investing predominantly in the equity securities of real estate companies, most notably real estate investment trusts (REITs) and REIT-like entities, worldwide. The fund employs a multi-manager approach, leveraging the expertise of a team of global asset managers to diversify its portfolio across various property sectors—such as residential, commercial, industrial, healthcare, and self-storage—and regions, including North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe. Typically, at least 80% of the fund's assets are allocated to real estate securities, which may include common stocks, preferred stocks, and convertible securities of companies whose revenues or profits are closely tied to real estate activities such as ownership, development, or management of properties. The fund is benchmarked to leading global real estate indices, reflecting its broad market exposure. It plays a significant role in offering investors access to the performance and income characteristics of global real estate markets, while providing diversification from traditional equity and fixed income securities.
