In this episode, we focus on infrastructure, an asset class that behaves differently to shares and bonds. Joining Kyle to explain what this investment area can add to a portfolio is Donal Reynolds, manager of abrdn Global Infrastructure Equity. He points out that infrastructure offers inflation protection, explains why lower interest rates act as a tailwind, and runs through three long-term trends he’s investing in.
