The GREFI (Global Real Estate Funds Index) measures net asset value performance of non-listed real estate funds on a quarterly basis. Performance is measured net of fees and other costs, and represents the aggregate investor return. The GREFI is an unfrozen index which means that historical data can change with future updates. The history of GREFI starts at Q1 2010.

Since Q3 2018 publication GREFI no longer includes US closed end value added funds (CEVA index). The Index results are based on fund level data that is provided to ANREV, INREV and NCREIF directly from managers. Data collection starts immediately after a quarter has ended for a period of up to 10 weeks after quarter end.

ANREV, INREV and NCREIF do not use publicly available information.

The Index was launched in 2014 and is now published 12 weeks after quarter end.

  • The Global Real Estate Fund Index (GREFI) shows the performance of non-listed real estate funds on a global basis and is jointly created by ANREV, INREV and NCREIF. This publication includes performance figures up to the end of Q4 2023.

    The GREFI All Funds Index was updated for the first time on a quarterly basis following the second quarterly release of the ANREV Index for Q1 2014. From Q1 2014 onwards, GREFI has been updated 12 weeks after the quarter end. This index release follows the same structure of previous releases.

    The history of the Global Real Estate Fund Index (GREFI) has been extended to Q1 2005, now offering more than 15 years of performance across all regions.

    Key highlights:

    • The GREFI All Funds Index delivered a total return of -3.22% in Q4 2023 and was negative for the sixth consecutive quarter.
    • All three regions recorded negative performances, with Asia Pacific funds outperforming European and US funds.
