Infrastructure projects are by nature long -term investments in industries that have high barriers to entry. The management will seek companies that have monopolistic tendencies and will therefore offer predictable cash flows and help protect against inflation. Typical industries in which the fund will invest include 'regulated assets', (utilities and communications) and 'user pay assets', (roads, rail, ports and airports).
The fund will have a maximum exposure to emerging markets of 20%. Other major areas for investing include the US, Canada, UK/Europe and Australasia.
Infrastructure funds have grown out of the Australian market and Macquarie were the first to create such a fund.
