NGIF
NGIF is actively managed, seeking to provide a diversified portfolio of global infrastructure-related companies by investing its assets in equity securities of infrastructure companies globally, including those involved in the ownership, development, construction, and operation of critical infrastructure assets such as utilities, transportation networks, healthcare facilities, and energy resources. The fund invests across a broad range of equity securities, including common and preferred stocks, MLPs, REITs, and other ETFs, spanning companies of all market capitalizations. With at least 40% of net assets allocated to non-US issuers and up to 25% in emerging markets. The sub-advisers selection process targets companies considered attractively valued, with strong fundamentals, experienced management teams, and long-term contracts, while also identifying catalysts for potential value appreciation. The fund may use derivatives to manage risk, enhance returns, and hedge against currency fluctuations.
