Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund Receives LSEG Lipper Fund Award

LONDON, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cohen & Steers, Inc. (NYSE: CNS) announced today that the Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund (the "Fund") has received a 2024 LSEG Lipper Fund Award for the Fund's strong risk-adjusted performance for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods ending December 31, 2023.

The Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund was recognized for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods in France and Germany. The Fund was also recognized for the 3- and 10-year periods in Austria and Europe, for the 3-year period in the Nordics and the 10-year period in Switzerland. This is the sixth consecutive year Lipper has recognized the Cohen & Steers SICAV European Real Estate Securities Fund.

Rogier Quirijns, Head of European Real Estate, said:  
"We are honored to be recognized by the LSEG Lipper Fund Awards for our European listed real estate performance. We believe European real estate securities continue to trade at attractive valuations following their trough in October 2023 and that pullbacks in the market can present attractive entry points. As a result, we have observed investors allocating away from direct real estate to European listed real estate."

In 2023, the Fund received a Lipper Fund Award in the Equity Sector Real Estate European category for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods in Austria, Europe, France and the Netherlands. It was also recognized for the 10-year period in Switzerland. In 2024, the European Real Estate category included the following numbers of funds:
