LONDON, May 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Cohen & Steers, Inc. (NYSE: CNS) announced today that two of its real estate SICAV funds (collectively "the Funds") have received 2023 Refinitiv Lipper Fund Awards for the funds' strong risk-adjusted performance for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, ending December 31, 2022.
The Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund was recognized for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods in Austria, Europe, France and the Netherlands. The fund was also recognized for the 10-year period in Switzerland.
The Cohen & Steers SICAV Global Real Estate Securities Fund was recognized for the 3-year period in Austria, France, Netherlands, the Nordics and Switzerland.
Jon Cheigh, Chief Investment Officer & Head of Global Real Estate, said:
"The Refinitiv Lipper Awards recognize Cohen & Steers' leading position within listed real estate and our team's ability to deliver consistent excess returns for our clients. While slowing economic growth and high inflation temper the near-term outlook for global and European real estate securities, we believe that listed real estate will present attractive entry points in 2023. Against this cyclical backdrop, and supported by a secular shift to embracing alternatives, investors globally are increasing their adoption of real estate securities."
This is the fifth consecutive year Lipper has recognized the Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund. In 2022, the fund received a Lipper Fund Award in the Equity Sector Real Estate European category in France and Switzerland for the prior 10-year period, which included 29 and 19 funds respectively.
