Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1
The investment objective of the DFA Global Real Estate Securities Portfolio (the Portfolio) is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
The fund invests in real estate securities globally through a combination of two underlying funds and direct holdings, with allocations adjusted periodically without notice to shareholders. It targets companies principally engaged in real estate—those deriving at least 50% of revenue or assets from real estate ownership, management, development, or construction, or organized as REITs—using a market-capitalization-weighted approach adjusted for factors including value (low price relative to book value), profitability, liquidity, and momentum. The fund concentrates more than 25% of assets in real estate securities and maintains approximately 72% exposure to U.S. companies, with the remainder across at least two other countries. Because the fund's allocations to underlying funds and direct securities may shift, and its selection adjustments rest on multiple discretionary factors, actual holdings may diverge from a simple market-cap baseline.
