WAULT (weighted average unexpired lease term) is an indicator that represents the average time remaining until the expiration of lease agreements in a property portfolio. This metric is calculated as a weighted average of the lease durations, based on the rent and the area of individual properties. WAULT provides insights into the stability of rental income and the long-term security of an investment in commercial real estate. A higher WAULT indicates a longer period for which tenants are bound by lease agreements, which can contribute to greater stability and predictability of income.

The weight of a fund in the context of an investment portfolio refers to the percentage share of a specific fund in the total value of the portfolio. This indicator determines what portion of the investment funds or capital is allocated to a particular fund. The fund's weight influences the overall risk and performance of the portfolio, as funds with higher weight have a greater impact on the overall performance and volatility of the portfolio. Properly setting the weight of the funds is crucial for achieving investment goals and managing risks.
