What are real assets?

What are the benefits of real assets?

There are several reasons you may want to consider including real assets in your investment portfolio:

• Diversify your equity exposure: Adding real assets to a portfolio is a way to diversify your equity exposure and also obtain access to an under-represented asset category.
• Low correlation to other assets: Real assets have a low correlation to the other assets you are most likely to already hold—stocks and traditional bonds.
• Attractive returns: Historically, real assets have had attractive long-term returns.
• Protect your portfolio: Through the benefits of low correlations and attractive return profiles, real assets may help protect your portfolio from the effects of inflation.
