Uses of Property Derivatives
Property Derivatives provide the investor with the ability to:
- Gain or reduce exposure to the property market.
- Hedge a current position in the physical assets.
- Change the composition of a portfolio quickly, i.e. switch out of Retail property and into Industrial.
- Speculate on the property market
All of these objectives can be achieved without having to transact in physical property; synthetic real estate.

Famous quotes containing the word property:
“It is as if being was to be observed,
As if, among the possible purposes
Of what one sees, the purpose that comes first,
The surface, is the purpose to be seen,
The property of the moon, what it evokes.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
