Скачать или смотреть The 2 asset classes ripe for thriving in the new market regime

Welcome to the new market regime—an era that will be more challenging for investors used to the free money punchbowl that has dominated markets for most of the last four decades.

In the view of the world's largest and most influential asset manager BlackRock, this new regime will bring higher volatility, higher for longer inflation, more unpredictable macroeconomic conditions, and a new approach to portfolio construction. Gone are the days of the "set and forget" portfolio. Instead, investors would now be best served by innovative portfolio construction. In other words, the playbook of the last 40 years won't work now.

The end of the "set and forget" portfolio will also likely herald the end of the traditional 60% equities/40% bond and fixed income allocation approach. As 2022 demonstrated, it now pays investors to diversify into alternative assets.

Two of those alternative assets are infrastructure and real estate. According to Tamara Haban-Beer Stats, Director and ETFs and Index Investments Specialist at iShares by BlackRock, these two assets provide true diversification, a lower correlation to equities, and a genuine income-earning opportunity.

But given how walled-off infrastructure and real estate investing has been in the past, how can you (the average investor) get access to this theme? If this is what you're after, look no further than this edition of Fund in Focus - discussing iShares' infrastructure product (ASX: GLIN) and its real estate product (ASX: GLPR).
