Reasons to consider inves�ng in listed infrastructure• Reliable and growing cashflows generated by cri�cal physical infrastructure – long-term assets which are essen�al for the func�oning of global society.• Listed infrastructure has typically offered characteris�cs of higher dividend yield and lower vola�lity compared to global equi�es, as well as exposure to infla�on-linked revenue streams.• Listed infrastructure provides exposure to long-term structural growth trends including renewable energy, clean transport and digital connec�vity.
M&G's differen�ated approach• Focus on long-term growth, not bond proxies; growth opportuni�es in evolving infrastructure (communica�on, transac�onal and royalty).• A sustainable approach where the assessment of environmental, social and governance (ESG) considera�ons is integrated in the investment process.
The value and income from the fund’s assets will go down as well as up. This will cause the value of your investment to fall as well as rise. There is no guarantee that the fund will achieve its objec�ve and you may get back less than you originally invested.
The fund can be exposed to different currencies. Movements in currency exchange rates may adversely affect the value of your investment.
Why now?• In an environment of uncertainty, we believe listed infrastructure can provide reliable and sustainable long-term growth.• Companies are paying increasing a�en�on to ESG in their efforts to become be�er businesses, both from a financial perspec�ve as well as ensuring sustainability.• Fiscal expansion in the wake of COVID-19, including higher spending on infrastructure, may provide a favourable backdrop for the asset class.
The fund holds a small number of investments, and therefore a fall in the value of a single investment may have a greater impact than if it held a larger number of investments.

Infrastructure assets – an essen�al part of your day
NOV 20 / 513105
• Assets on which we rely in our everyday lives – from the moment we wake up in the morning to the moment we fall asleep at night.• Both tradi�onal infrastructure assets and assets that support the increasingly digital world that we live in.• Opportuni�es across geographies, including emerging markets.
Inves�ng in emerging markets involves a greater risk of loss due to greater poli�cal, tax, economic, foreign exchange, liquidity and regulatory risks, among other factors. There may be difficul�es in buying, selling, safekeeping or valuing investments in such countries.
The fund invests mainly in company shares and is therefore likely to experience larger price fluctua�ons than funds that invest in bonds and/or cash.
