Listed infrastructure offers predictable cash flows and monopolistic market positions, resulting in equity-like returns with lower volatility.
In challenging markets, listed infrastructure provides favourable downside capture, inflation protection, and appealing dividend yields.
Demand for infrastructure development drives economic and societal growth, creating long-term investment opportunities.
“We think this is an asset class that is ripe for active management. There are a lot of mispricings in the market that gives us opportunities to add and trim as we see relative value evolve”.

The fund aims to outperform the FTSE Developed Core Infrastructure 50/50 Index hedged to Australian dollars over a full market cycle (normally three to five years) before fees and taxes.
The fund has a value-oriented philosophy towards investing in listed infrastructure and uses a relative value framework to determine both subsector and security weightings.
Cohen & Steers believes success in global listed infrastructure investing requires a balance of top-down subsector research and bottom-up company specific analysis, while all infrastructure subsectors share several core investment characteristics, each will perform differently across economic and market environments. Cohen & Steers anticipates the portfolio will comprise 30 to 50 investments. This fund aims to hedge currency risk.
