Harbour Real Estate Investment FundvsResolution Capital Global Property Securities PIE Fund
Harbour Real Estate Investment Fund (fund size NZ$130.3 million, annual fund charge 0.77%) and Resolution Capital Global Property Securities PIE Fund (fund size NZ$177.5 million, annual fund charge 1.05%) are both listed property managed funds, as shown on Sorted Smart Investor on 22 May 2026; for the year to 31 March 2026 their 1-year returns after fees and tax were 4.22% and 6.53%, per their quarterly fund updates filed on FMA Disclose.
How much do these two overlap?
They hold 2 of the same securities. If you held both, roughly 1.5% of your money would be in the same companies — so the diversification you get from holding the pair is smaller than holding two funds suggests.
| Shared holding | Harbour Real | Resolution Capital | Min weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| GOODMAN GROUP | 1.48% | 2.27% | 1.48% |
| SCENTRE GROUP | 0.02% | 1.54% | 0.02% |
Min weight is the smaller of the two weightings — if you hold both funds, that is the floor of your exposure to that position. Direct holdings only: anything either fund holds through an underlying fund or ETF is not counted, so the real overlap can only be higher. From each fund's FMA Disclose full portfolio filing.

Why these two differ
The most material structural difference between these two funds is geographic scope. The Harbour Real Estate Investment Fund invests almost exclusively in New Zealand-listed property companies — its top five holdings are all NZX-listed REITs and property groups, including Precinct Properties Group (15.82%), Goodman Property Trust (15.48%), and Kiwi Property Group (13.75%). The Resolution Capital Global Property Securities PIE Fund, by contrast, holds globally diversified property securities, with its largest disclosed positions being US-listed Welltower Inc (9.41%) and Equinix Inc (8.41%), alongside a material cash position at BNZ (8.18%). Both funds carry near-identical growth asset allocations of 98.31%, but their risk indicators diverge: Harbour sits at 5 on the standard 1–7 scale, Resolution Capital at 6, reflecting the additional currency and global market volatility the latter carries.
On fees, Harbour's annual fund charge is 0.77% versus Resolution Capital's 1.05%. Fund size is broadly comparable — Harbour at approximately NZD 130.3 million, Resolution Capital at approximately NZD 177.5 million. Harbour discloses a five-year annualised return of 1.51%; Resolution Capital's five-year return figure is not available in this snapshot, so direct long-run performance comparison cannot be made here. Both funds sit within the same Listed Property category and hold overwhelmingly growth-oriented assets.
