- Vert Global Sustainable Real Estate Fund - Institutional Shares (VGSRX) is an actively managed mutual fund that provides exposure to a broad portfolio of sustainable real estate companies, focusing on those principally engaged in the real estate industry that meet the advisor's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies, with emphasis on real estate investment trusts (REITs), REIT-like entities including real estate developers and operating companies with substantial real estate holdings, and other pooled investment vehicles managing income-producing real estate or real estate-related loans. The portfolio emphasizes companies demonstrating leadership in emissions reductions, climate commitments, and sustainability practices, diversified across countries, property sectors, market capitalizations, and including top holdings such as Simon Property Group Inc., Welltower Inc., Digital Realty Trust Inc., Prologis Inc., and Goodman Group. The fund is managed by Vert Asset Management, LLC, founded in 2016 and headquartered in Sausalito, California, with Dimensional Fund Advisors LP serving as sub-advisor for portfolio management, U.S. Bank as series trust provider, and academic input from experts like Gary Pivo of the University of Arizona and Franz Fuerst of the University of Cambridge. Vert Asset Management targets institutional and wealth management clients seeking sustainable alternatives within public real estate allocations, operating globally with a focus on developed and emerging markets while excluding sectors like fossil fuels and prisons. In a major strategic shift, the fund reorganized from a mutual fund structure to the Vert Global Sustainable Real Estate ETF (ticker: VGSR) on December 4, 2023, with mutual fund investors receiving shares of equal value in the ETF; the investment strategy, ESG criteria, active shareholder engagement, management by Vert, and sub-advisory by Dimensional remained unchanged. No significant partnerships, acquisitions, funding rounds, or new product launches have been reported for Vert Asset Management or the fund in 2024 or 2025. The strategy continues to outperform its benchmarks over 1-, 3-, 5-year periods and since inception in October 2017 as a mutual fund, with ongoing publication of insights on real estate sustainability trends.
