With the industry upheaval following the global financial crisis (GFC), increasing fee pressures and new legislation, multi-manager funds have evolved for a new reality and advisers are taking a fresh look. For fund managers now there is a greater focus on new investment strategies and absolute returns that meet the clients’ objective.
The popularity of investing in listed infrastructure has risen significantly over the last few years. New factors are set to drive demand even further and we believe that it is inevitable that global listed infrastructure will be recognised as its own unique asset class. We view the asset class as being at a similar stage of its development to where real estate investment trusts (REITs) were in the 1980s.
I have always seen one of the biggest challenges facing our industry is the need to make what we do, and how we do it, easy to understand and interesting.
