Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2
The investment objective of Cohen & Steers Real Estate Securities Fund, Inc. (the Fund) is total return through investment in real estate securities.
The fund employs a bottom-up valuation approach to select publicly traded real estate securities, using a proprietary model based on price-to-net asset value, cash flow multiples, and dividend discount modeling, combined with fundamental analysis of property dynamics, management quality, and financial strength. The fund invests at least 80% of assets in income-producing equity securities of real estate companies and REITs, with up to 20% in debt securities and up to 20% in foreign issuers. The fund may also write put and call options to enhance current income.

Portfolio growth profile
How much of the fund’s stock holdings are in fast-growing companies · as of 2026 Q2
Share of the fund’s equity (by value) in companies whose trailing five-year revenue — or net-income — growth ranks in the top 25% of U.S. public companies. Foreign and newly-listed holdings are excluded, so the figure covers only part of the book. From SEC filings — not investment advice. How we measure this.

| +14.94% | +37.26% | +27.30% | 14.78% | -12.75% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 6.33pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.27pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
