Category classification and liquidity

Morningstar places the fund in the Equity Australia Real Estate category, which covers funds investing primarily in Australian listed property trusts almost exclusively, with at least 75% of the portfolio in listed property and a smaller component in direct property or cash.

Liquidity indicators add a further view. There are 37,419,029 units on issue, and average daily trading volume is 75,217 units. Over the five sessions from 7 to 13 October 2026, daily volume ranged from 35,100 to 78,700 units, with 43,315 recorded on 13 October while the market was still open. The bid-offer range stood at $21.55 to $21.60, and the day range at $21.41 to $21.74. These figures change through the trading day and reflect market activity rather than the fund's holdings.

Recent announcements

The issuer lodged Issued Units Outstanding as at 30 September 2026 on 7 October, the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2026 on 28 September, and dividend component details on 16 July.

Final Takeaway

MVA spreads exposure almost evenly across 14 A-REITs, in contrast to cap-weighted property funds where one company dominates. Its 0.35% fee and 38.00% turnover are higher than those of cap-weighted peers. These details describe the fund and do not forecast results.
