Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund (NYSE: RQI) is a closed-end management investment company that seeks to provide high current income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs) and real estate operating companies. The fund pursues a quality-focused strategy that emphasizes well-capitalized issuers with sustainable dividend policies and proven management teams, aiming to generate consistent distributions for shareholders.
The fund’s portfolio is constructed through a research-driven process in which Cohen & Steers Capital Management, the fund’s investment adviser, identifies companies with strong balance sheets, attractive yield potential and durable cash flows. Investment targets include a broad range of property sectors such as residential, office, industrial, retail, healthcare and specialized real estate niches. The fund may also allocate a portion of its assets to real estate development firms and mortgage REITs to enhance income diversification.
While the fund maintains a primary focus on U.S. real estate securities, it has the flexibility to invest in developed international markets where valuation or income opportunities are compelling. Geographic diversification helps mitigate country-specific risks and allows the fund to capture attractive yield differentials across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific regions. Sector allocations are regularly rebalanced in response to market conditions and shifting fundamentals.
Launched in October 2006, Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund leverages the experience of a dedicated real estate investment team with decades of sector expertise.
