Diversified exposure to long-lived assets in monopoly-like businesses Energy Storage & Transportation Transportation Gathering & Processing Toll Roads Utilities Airports Electric & Gas Utilities Marine Ports Renewable Electricity Railroads Water TRADITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE INDUSTRIES INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET CLASS NEWER INFRASTRUCTURE-RELATED INDUSTRIES Network Storage Facilities Infrastructure Warehouses Data Centers Distribution Centers Logistics Facilities Communications Satellites Towers 6 Why Invest in Infrastructure? COMPETITIVE RISK-ADJUSTED RETURNS Over time, infrastructure assets have provided investors with competitive risk-adjusted returns relative to other asset classes. SUSTAINABLE INCOME STREAM The “local monopoly” nature of most infrastructure assets combined with long-duration contracts may create a sustainable and reliable income stream for investors. LOWER ECONOMIC SENSITIVITY The inelastic nature of the demand for infrastructure services and products causes the asset class to have low economic sensitivity, which can help provide downside protection in turbulent economic environments. INFLATION PROTECTION Many infrastructure stocks have inflation-linked pricing in their revenue contracts, which can help them do particularly well in periods of unexpected inflation. DIVERSIFICATION The asset class lends itself to active management due to the diversified opportunity set across regions and types of businesses. Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against a loss. The infrastructure industries can be significantly affected by general economic trends; fluctuations in energy and commodity prices; supply and demand of services or fuel; interest rate changes; financing difficulties; natural resource conservation; labor relations; legislation; taxes; government regulation and spending; geopolitical 7 developments; import controls; worldwide competition; and liability for environmental damage, depletion of resources, and mandated expenditures for safety and pollution control.
