Introducing Elston Liquid Real Asset Index

About this index

Inflation is on the rise.  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.
