GPR Pure Infrastructure Indices

Published in Thematic Indices

Global listed infrastructure is attracting the attention of institutional investors worldwide. Infrastructure is recognized as the backbone of the global economy due to its long-lived standing assets and importance to vital processes within day-to-day life. It offers the potential for stable, predictable long-term yields while providing diversification and inflation-hedging characteristics similar to listed real estate. As the infrastructure market by nature is heterogeneous, capturing the publicly traded segment of this market in an index is challenging. With the GPR Pure Infrastructure Index, Global Property Research (GPR) created an investable benchmark that reflects the pure global listed infrastructure industry by:

Utilizing 20 years of know-how on constructing (bespoke) listed real estate benchmarks
Constructing a clear framework to filter listed infrastructure companies
Providing a perfect tool to further diversify investments
Creating an extensive and transparent index series structure
