Investment Objective
- Seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation and high current income.
Investment Strategy
- Invests at least 80% of total portfolio assets in the common stocks or other securities of companies that are engaged primarily in real estate. Focuses on real estate equity securities, but may invest in other types of real estate securities, or in companies in other industries.
Benefits of Investing in the Thrivent Real Estate Securities Portfolio
- This is a unique asset class with attractive investment characteristics that can provide meaningful diversification benefits to an overall portfolio.
- The Portfolio may offer a higher current yield than bonds, with the added benefit of growth, and exposure to an asset class that has provided historically strong returns, with a moderate level of risk compared to the overall stock market.
Special Investment Risks
- Real estate security prices are influenced by the underlying value of properties owned by the company, which may be influenced by the supply and demand for space and other factors.
- The real estate industry is cyclical, and the value of securities issued by companies in the real estate industry may fluctuate in value.
- These and other risks are described in the prospectus.
Investment Minimums
- All initial and subsequent investment minimums exist at the contract level. Most subaccounts carry no investment minimums.
- However, a minimum of $1,000 is required if you choose to use the DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) Fixed Account to fund periodic investments to other subaccounts. See the prospectus for additional information.
