Association welcomes inclusion of three Reits in FTSE, JSE property indices
Representative body the SA REIT Association has welcome the inclusion of three real estate investment trusts (Reits) – Spear REIT, Dipula Properties and Octodec Investments – in the FTSE and JSE All Property Index, ALPI, as well as the SA REIT Index.
This is effective March 23, following the JSE’s latest index review.
The association highlights this inclusion as a “meaningful milestone” for all three SA REIT Association members.
“It reflects the growing depth of South Africa’s Reit. In addition, it creates a more representative benchmark for investors across listed property strategies, including index-tracking and specialist Reit funds,” the association says in a statement.
The JSE’s property indices play a key role in how listed property performance is measured, compared and communicated across the market.
A broader and more investable benchmark is said to strengthen price discovery and trading efficiency over time, while supporting clearer sector-level analysis for advisers, asset managers and institutional investors.
Index inclusion is also posited as a practical signal that eligibility requirements such as liquidity and free-float thresholds have been met, bolstering investor confidence in the reliability and replicability of these benchmarks.
“We congratulate Spear REIT, Dipula Properties and Octodec Investments on their inclusion in the ALPI and the SA REIT Index. This is a positive development for each business and for the Reit property sector as a whole.
“It strengthens the breadth of the benchmark and it highlights the ongoing momentum within the South African Reit market,” says association CEO Joanne Solomon.
