Alternative REITs: Sub-categories and Economic Rationale for Inclusion in REITs Portfolios
REITs democratize real estate investment, enabling small investors to access diverse portfolios of rental assets. Introduced in 1961, their pass-through taxation structure fosters steady income. Evolving with demographics and technology, REITs in developed markets offer investors a variety of assets to invest in allowing them to enjoy the benefits of diversification. Meanwhile, REITs are still evolving in other economies like India, offering significant potential to evolve in coming years.
