Welcome to Global Property Research

ABN AMRO Bank N.V. has launched six certificates based on the GPR indices with a focus on the listed property sector in specific regions in the world. For each region (US REIT, United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Asia Pacific, Global and Global REIT), the most liquid and largest property companies are selected. The brochure "Investieren in Immobilien" contains a description of all certificates.
Barclays Global Investors (US) has published a report ("Real Estate Investing, The REIT Way") in which various index providers are compared. In this research report, the GPR 250 is ranked among the best indices for global property shares (in terms of coverage, investability, float adjustment, published rules, accuracy and acceptance). The report, once again, emphasises the reputation of Global Property Research as an index provider for the global listed property sector.

Global Property Research has launched the GPR 250 REIT Index, which is the first global index that tracks the performance of REIT-like structured companies. The index is a subset of the GPR 250 Index and includes only companies that are structured as a REIT.


Global Property Research has launched GPR 250 Hedged Index Series in October 2002. The new index series is an addition to the broad scale of existing property share indices that Global Property Research offers to the investment market.
