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.
