Our strategy, evolved
What is happening?
The Board of Schroder Real Estate Investment Trust Limited and Schroders Capital Real Estate (‘Schroders’) as Manager are recommending some amendments to the Company’s Investment Objective and Policy. The purpose of these changes is to formally place sustainability considerations at the heart of the Company’s investment strategy.
Why are we making these changes?
With the real estate industry accounting for around 40% of all global greenhouse gas emissions (World Economic Forum, 2022), it is clear that real estate asset owners have a vital role to play in tackling the causes of climate change. Schroders has both the asset management capabilities and sustainability expertise to take a sector leading position in the journey towards Net Zero Carbon.
Meanwhile, investing in existing buildings to improve their environmental performance not only helps to tackle climate change, but also allows the portfolio to potentially benefit from the “green premium”, where properties with genuine green credentials can command higher prices and rents. In turn, this should mean a higher – and more sustainable – income for shareholders, as well the potential for enhanced total returns.
What happens next?
An Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company will be held at 10:00 am on 15/12/2023.
This meeting will provide further context regarding the change and will provide shareholders with the opportunity to vote on the proposal to amend the Investment Objective and Policy of the Company.
The Board unanimously recommends shareholders vote in favour of the proposal, in the belief that it is in the best interests of shareholders.

2The Company completed the refinancing of its £129.6 million loan with Canada Life in October 2019. This extended the average maturity from 8.5 to 16.5 years and reduced the interest rate from 4.4% to 2.5% per annum. The refinancing generated an immediate interest saving of £2.5 million per annum. The refinancing incurred a one-off cost of £27.4 million.

The EPRA Sustainability Best Practices Recommendations (sBPR) Guidelines provide a consistent way of measuring sustainability performance in the same way that BPR for financial reporting have made the financial statements of listed real estate companies in Europe clearer and more comparable. sBPR are intended to raise the standards and consistency of sustainability reporting for listed real estate companies across Europe.

The Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) is a mission driven and industry-led organisation that provides actionable and transparent environmental, social and governance (ESG) data to financial markets. GRESB provides a consistent framework to measure the ESG performance of individual assets and portfolios based on self-reported data.

Investing in Schroder Real Estate Investment Trust
What are the risks?
Investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and more difficult to realise than equities or bonds.
Yields may vary and are not guaranteed.
The use of gearing is likely to lead to volatility in the Net Asset Value ("NAV") meaning that a relatively small movement either down or up in the value of the Company's total assets will result in a magnified movement in the same direction of that NAV.
There is no guarantee that the market price of shares in a UK Real Estate Investment Trust such as SREIT will fully reflect their underlying NAV.
The value of real estate is a matter of a valuer's opinion rather than fact.
This UK Real Estate Investment Trust should be considered only as part of a balanced portfolio, of which it should not form a disproportionate part.
Non-Mainstream Pooled Investments (NMPI) Status
The Company currently conducts its affairs so that its shares can be recommended by IFAs to ordinary retail investors in accordance with the FCA's rules in relation to non-mainstream investment products and intends to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. The Company's shares are excluded from the FCA's restrictions which apply to non-mainstream investment products because they are shares in an investment trust.
