Introducing Elston Liquid Real Asset Index
About this index
Inflation is on the rise. Whilst equities may provide long-term inflation protection, a combination of liquid real assets can help provide near-term and medium-term inflation protection.
This Index aims to:
1. Increase Diversification: The index represents a range of real asset exposures that focus on providing a real income, a real value or a real difference.
2. Protect Against Inflation: The index provides access to key exposures that enable a layered approach to inflation protection over different time-frames.
3. Constrain Risk: The index is designed to have a volatility comparable to UK gilts to enable partial substitution of bond allocations, without altering a portfolio’s overall risk profile.
