Fund OverviewThe 4D Global Infrastructure Fund aims to outperform the OECD G7 Inflation Index +5.5% p.a. over the long term by identifying quality listed global infrastructure securities, trading at or below fair value with sustainable, growing earning combined with sustainable, growing dividends.

The fund will be managed as a single portfolio of listed global infrastructure securities including regulated utilities in gas, electricity and water, transport infrastructure such as airports, ports, road and rail as well as communication assets such as the towers and satellite sectors.

The portfolio is intended to have exposure to both developed and emerging market opportunities, with country risk assessed internally before any investment is considered.

The maximum absolute position of an individual stock is 7% of the fund.
Manager CommentsThe 4D Global Infrastructure Fund rose +2.21% in April, outperforming its benchmark by +1.63% and taking annualised performance since inception in March 2016 to +9.40%. 4D continue to maintain a relatively high cash position awaiting core economic data and a stabilisation of the contagion.

The strongest performer in April was US midstream operator Targa Resources (+89%) recovering some of its March losses. The weakest performer was US utility CMS (-2.8%). 4D expect utilities to offer relative resilient earnings over coming months as economic deterioration plays around the globe.

4D expect investors' focus to turn to not only the shape of the economic recovery but also whether the huge monetary and fiscal stimulus measures are inflationary as we move into phase 2 of the pandemic (as defined by the IMF). 4D noted the stimulus could lead to inflation if demand exceeds supply for a sustained period.
