Real assets
Real solutions in the real world
Why Aberdeen investments for Real Assets?
We invest in essential communities and services, and we have for many years.
Essential communities - Homes, senior living, student accommodation, schools and hospitals.
Essential services - Heating and lighting, clean water, fibre and data centres, logistics hubs, warehouse space and transport.
Client centricity
Different clients have different needs. We work together with them to design the products and solutions they are looking for. Seeking returns for our clients is in our DNA and real assets can be a genuine portfolio diversifier. We strive for robust returns in infrastructure, living and logistics.
Steadfast on sustainability
Real assets play a critical role in tackling sustainability challenges like energy security and affordability, climate change and urbanisation. Our expertise and portfolios are extensive – we invest in renewable energy, hospitals, eco-friendly buildings, electric trains, rural broadband and biomethane production – with sustainability one of the key factors driving our decision-making, at the point of investment and throughout our ownership.
Diligent for decades
The backbone of every economy - bricks and mortar, concrete and steel, energy and data – have been shaping our lives for decades. They’re here to stay, and so are we. For years we have been using our research to track, analyse and make forecasts for this asset class. We apply our insight to unlock the potential from real assets.
