Real estate investment trust funds are collective investment plans in the form of trusts that mainly invest in real estate projects so as to provide investors with returns on the regular rental income of real estate projects, such as shopping malls, office buildings, and hotels.

Real estate investment trust funds open to individual investors must be listed on the HKEX, which means you can buy and sell them like equities.

Besides average investment risks, this type of fund involves many real estate-related risks. Before deciding to invest in them, you should refer to the documents on the sales of the products to learn about their investment objectives, investment strategies, risks, charges, and trading procedures.
