Additionally, ETFs can be subject to fees and expenses, which can impact their returns.
Before investing in IFGL or any other ETF, investors should carefully evaluate the fund's investment strategy, underlying holdings, performance history, fees and expenses, and their own investment objectives, risk tolerance, and financial situation. They should also consider the potential risks associated with investing in real estate companies and in international markets.
