Real assets funds struggle to build new capital
In Q1, global real assets fundraising dropped a staggering 96% year-over-year as only six vehicles closed on just $2 billion in commitments. None of those unusually small funds were based in North America, which marks a reversal of historical trends. But the fundraising slowdown may reverse in coming quarters, and the latest performance data suggests infrastructure funds are living up to their low-volatility, countercyclical reputation.
Fundraising may be down, but infrastructure investing is far from dormant. Our latest Global Real Assets Report breaks down the data on strategies including core, opportunistic, generalist, and debt, and includes a spotlight on sustainable infrastructure and a breakdown on natural resources.
