The investments produce real estate income and/or interest, 90% of which must be paid out as dividends to shareholders. That allows the REIT to not have to pay taxes.

Headquartered in San Francisco, installment-payment broker Affirm (NASDAQ:AFRM) is also considered a specialist in the “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) niche market.
