Infrastructure holds an important place in the fabric of modern society, serving as the backbone of the world economy. As such, we believe that the stable and growing cashflows generated by the asset class have an equally important part to play in investors’ portfolios.

Everyday we’re unknowingly reliant on infrastructure. From getting up in the morning, checking your phone and taking a shower to watching the latest boxset at the end of the day…

The value of the fund's assets will go down as well as up. This will cause the value of your investment to fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested.

The M&G (Lux) Global Listed Infrastructure Fund invests in the foundations of a modern society – from the physical assets that provide our water, energy and transportation needs, to the education and healthcare facilities that foster our society, and the communications networks that connect us in an increasingly digital world.

The fund invests mainly in company shares and is therefore likely to experience larger price fluctuations than funds that invest in bonds and/or cash.

Our global approach seeks out opportunities in both the developed and the developing world, with a resolute focus on long-term stability and inflation-protected growth in an asset class with breadth, depth and liquidity.

In this 2 minute update, Alex Araujo, Fund Manager of the M&G (Lux) Global Listed Infrastructure Fund, discusses the impact of rising interest rates on listed infrastructure, touching on the types of infrastructure that tends to do well in this environment and what this means for client portfolios.
