Global infrastructure: An attractive investment opportunity

Infrastructure, which provides essentials such as transportation, communications, energy and water, is a potentially attractive investment. Here’s why:

  • Strong, consistent demand for infrastructure has delivered stable, repeatable cash flows.
  • Population growth, aging infrastructure and constrained government budgets are creating opportunities for the private sector.
  • The high cost of entering the infrastructure business limits competition.

If you’re interested in infrastructure, you might want to consider a strategy that focuses exclusively on companies that own and operate infrastructure—a “pure-play” approach.

There’s only one place to get pure-play infrastructure in an ETF: ProShares DJ Brookfield Global Infrastructure ETF (TOLZ).

Why pure play?

profile-details
The essence of infrastructure
  • A pure-play approach focuses on the companies that actually own and operate the transportation, communications, energy and water assets that provide essential services to our society.
  • Other infrastructure strategies may dilute their infrastructure investments with companies that supply services to the infrastructure industry.

Historically stable cash flows
  • Pure-play companies tend to generate long-term, stable cash flows, because demand for their services rarely declines—it typically grows over time.
  • Service companies are generally more dependent on the business cycle.

Potential performance benefits
  • The pure-play approach has outperformed the index used by other infrastructure ETFs.
