Helvetia Swiss Property Fund Reports Strong Half-Year Results

Helvetia (CH) Swiss Property Fund has announced its half-year results for the 2025/26 financial year, showing a net income rise of 9% to CHF 14.82 million as of 31 March 2026. This growth is credited to increased rental income from strategic property acquisitions, with the rent default rate slightly reduced to 1.37% from 1.44%. This performance is noted as being below the industry average.

The fund's performance also outperformed the SXI Real Estate Funds Broad (SWIIT) Index greatly, registering a 9.8% performance for the reporting period. Growth was bolstered by the acquisition of four new properties, leading to the portfolio's expansion from 49 to 53 properties and valuing at CHF 1,427 million.

A capital increase of CHF 128 million, coupled with a debt financing ratio of 21.15%, maintained the fund's financial flexibility. The management fee reduction to 0.55% as of April 2026 also reinforces its competitive positioning.
