Capitalización de mercado USD 580 M

Real assets are gaining attention as global markets move from a 15-year “era of abundance” to an “era of scarcity.” Persistent inflation, underinvestment, and fragile supply chains are driving this shift.

On August 12, Cohen & Steers launched the Cohen & Steers Real Assets Active ETF (CSRA). This actively managed ETF looks to deliver attractive long-term total returns and to maximize real returns during inflationary environments.

Cohen & Steers Real Estate Active ETF (CSRE) is a top-performing, actively managed REIT ETF, outperforming passive peers since its early 2025 launch. CSRE leverages deep sector expertise, concentrated high-conviction positions, and a focus on technology-related real estate to drive returns. Active REIT ETFs like CSRE offer diversification and historical outperformance but come with higher fees (0.70%) and lower yields versus passive options.

Top REIT investors are quietly repositioning their portfolios, revealing where the “smart money” sees opportunity. Several clear sector themes are emerging from recent 13F filings. But the biggest surprise may be how much top managers disagree on certain REITs.

It's been full steam ahead for active ETFs, with total assets now rapidly approaching the $1 trillion milestone. The ETF market, once dominated by passive indexed strategies, has undergone a seismic shift, as issuers tap into investor demand for flexible and transparent tailor-made strategies.

On Wednesday, Cohen & Steers announced the launch of a suite of three different actively managed ETFs. Each of these funds uses the firm's tried-and-true investment strategies within the ETF wrapper.
