Frequently asked questions

Real assets are defined as tangible assets that have intrinsic value due to their physical properties and typically share several key characteristics including:

  • Ownership of high value physical assets that generate stable and predictable cash flows
  • Relatively inelastic demand for the goods and services these assets provide
  • Quasi-monopolistic business models that often benefit from incumbency and high barriers to entry
  • Contractual or regulated revenues often linked to inflation
  • Attractive yields

Real assets include sectors such as real estate, infrastructure, midstream energy, natural resources, commodities, agriculture, and timber. They can provide exposure to durable macroeconomic trends such as population growth, urbanization, expansion of the industrial and digital economies, and the green transition.

Real assets have been among the better performing asset classes over full market cycles, often outperforming traditional stocks and bonds while delivering a higher level of income and offering sustained purchasing power.2 They can offer a combination of attractive total and risk-adjusted returns, diversification, inflation mitigation and yield.2
