Diversified Real Assets: The Case for a Strategic/Opportunistic Approach

BROOKFIELD PUBLIC SECURITIES GROUPi | 2019 | MULTI-ASSET STR ATEGIES

In our view, the popularity of alternative investing strategies speaks to the growing need for investors to diversify beyond traditional stock and bond allocations. We believe that tangible real assets can provide an effective way to source this diversification, based on our research into their distinct and often complementary profiles for risk and return. This primer makes the case for building exposure through a risk-aware, dynamic allocation to listed real assets—the equity and debt securities of companies that own and operate real assets. We will demonstrate the merits of a strategic/opportunistic framework for portfolio construction, based on a balanced approach to three important investment objectives: inflation protection, capital appreciation and current income.

1

Introduction THE FEATURES AND CHARACTERISITCS THAT BIND REAL ASSETS TOGETHER AS AN ASSET CLASS Listed real assets represent a global universe of nearly $11 trillion, as highlighted in Exhibit 1 below. Most of the companies that issue these securities are engaged in real estate, infrastructure and natural resources. While these asset classes have very different fundamental drivers and business models, our research into their investment characteristics points to several features that bind them together as real assets. For one, they are backed by tangible hard assets that tend to generate returns linked to inflation. In addition, the revenues from many real assets are visible and recurring, as they are frequently based on long-term contracts or regulation. And finally, the end-user demand for the essential goods and services provided by real assets tends to be relatively sustainable and inelastic.

These common “real” features drive three common investment characteristics found across the universe of real assets.

• First, real assets tend to have a positive sensitivity to inflation, thereby providing the potential to hedge against inflation. Of course, there are independent factors related to each asset class that may cause them to underperform or hinder their ability to keep pace with inflation.

• Second, real asset cash flows tend to be tied to contractual inflation escalators, which may lead to attractive capital appreciation.

• Third, real asset cash flows tend to be derived from contracted or regulated revenues that may provide current income potential.

BROOKFIELD'S STRATEGIC/OPPORTUNISTIC APPROACH TO REAL ASSETSWe believe that the distinct investment characteristics of real assets can provide an effective tool for portfolio diversification. In our view, positive inflation sensitivity, capital appreciation and current income are all relevant in the design of a multi-real-asset-class solution. But we also believe that this type of framework should be designed to deliver capital appreciation and income throughout the economic cycle, whether or not inflation is present. Through this paper, we demonstrate the merits of taking a balanced approach to these objectives, using a construction framework that divides real assets into strategic and opportunistic allocations.

DIVERSIFIED REAL ASSETS: THE CASE FOR A STRATEGIC/OPPORTUNISTIC APPROACH 2

The asset classes within the global real assets universe are fundamentally distinct, driving equally distinct investment characteristics. As we highlight in Exhibit 2, while most real assets are inherently sensitive to changes in inflation, some are more so than others. At the same time, the return characteristics of some asset classes tend to have more capital appreciation potential, while others are more income oriented. Below we rank these criteria for each of the sectors of our universe on a relative basis, based on our assessment of the historical return profiles we have observed in listed real-asset-related indexes. ii

BROOKFIELD'S FRAMEWORK FOR DIVERSIFIED REAL ASSETS

Many Diversified Real Asset/Real Return

Strategies

We consider each of these factors when we construct real asset solutions, seeking to balance the potential benefits of inflation protection, capital appreciation and current income. This approach, depicted in Exhibit 3, sets Brookfield apart from managers primarily focused on inflation protection, and is a key driver behind our strategic/opportunistic approach to asset allocation.

• The strategic allocations of Brookfield's diversified real asset solutions are focused on the first three asset classes in Exhibit 2—real estate equities, infrastructure equities and real asset debt. These asset classes have demonstrated a long history of relatively consistent patterns of return, albeit with moderate sensitivity to inflation.

• In contrast, our research suggests that sectors we deem to be more opportunistic—natural resource equities, commodities and TIPS—tend to have less consistent patterns of return over time, while demonstrating a higher sensitivity to changes in inflation. We tend to invest in these sectors as warranted by market conditions.

As illustrated below, the asset classes we deem to be strategic (real estate, infrastructure and real asset debt) delivered relatively attractive long-term risk-adjusted returns over the January 2003 through December 2018 study period—all near or above the capital markets line between the risk-free return (RFR) and equities (EQT).

V A R Y I N G D E G R E E S O F I N F L A T I O N S E N S I T I V I T YInflation sensitivity is driven by the fundamental nature of the underlying real assets. Examples include the pricing power of commercial real estate landlords to raise rents or of operators of infrastructure assets such as utilities and toll roads to pass along higher costs to customers. Exhibit 7 illustrates the performance of real asset classes in periods of greater-than-expected and less-than-expected inflation. Over the Study Period, the real asset classes we deem to be strategic performed

well versus their relevant global equity and fixed income benchmarks, regardless of the inflationary environment. In contrast, the three asset classes we deem to be opportunistic only performed well versus their relevant benchmarks when inflation was greater than expected. We believe these historical results support the view that such opportunistic allocations to natural resource equities, commodities and TIPS should be made when inflationary pressures are expected.

C A P I T A L A P P R E C I A T I O N P O T E N T I A LWe define real assets as long-lived, hard assets that have the potential to appreciate over time as replacement costs rise and operating efficiencies are achieved. Exhibit 8 highlights that, historically, such capital appreciation has been more pronounced in infrastructure equities and real estate equities. Historically, our blend

of real asset classes, which we deem to be strategic, as represented in the Brookfield Diversified Real Assets Index Blend (DRA), has delivered capital appreciation on par with global equities. In addition, DRA has delivered a higher income return, resulting in a higher total return.

The global universe of listed real asset equity and debt securities is composed of fundamentally distinct asset classes that have responded very differently to economic and market drivers. Consistent with these distinctions, there is wide dispersion in the returns of individual asset classes from year to year, as shown in Exhibit 11 below.

Based on these shifts in market leadership and the wide gaps observed between the top and bottom performer in each year, we believe that dynamic asset allocation within a multi-real-asset-class solution can enhance investment performance.

The Potential Value of Dynamic Asset Allocation


Throughout this paper, we have demonstrated the merits of including multiple real asset classes (including real estate, infrastructure and natural resources) and multiple security types (including equities and fixed-income instruments) in a multi-real-asset-class solution. Notably, over our Study Period from January 2003 through December 2018, the Brookfield Diversified Real Assets Index Blend (DRA) generated higher risk-adjusted returns than Global Equities (EQT) and Global Fixed Income (FI). These results, as measured by historical Sharpe Ratios, are highlighted in Exhibit 12 below.

We believe that the strategic allocation of a multi- real-asset-class solution should be focused on the three asset classes that have featured relatively consistent patterns of return: real estate equities, infrastructure equities and real asset debt securities. In contrast, allocations to natural resource equities, commodities and TIPS should be made opportunistically when inflationary pressures are expected. Our paper has illustrated the investment merits of this approach through a hypothetical blend of real-asset indexes — the Brookfield Diversified Real Assets Index Blend (DRA), which includes Strategic Asset Classes, as designated by Brookfield.

Our approach to constructing a diversified real assets solution seeks to balance the potential benefits of inflation protection, capital appreciation and current income. Over the Study Period, the Brookfield Diversified Real Assets Index Blend (DRA) provided these benefits, as summarized below:

1. Average annual returns that exceeded those of global equities in periods when inflation was greater than expected;

2. Capital appreciation slightly less than global equities; and

3. A significantly higher income return than either global equities or global fixed income.

We close with a summary of these results, highlighted in Exhibit 13.

Appendix: Exploring the Diverse Fundamentals Behind Real Asset Cash Flows

ASSET CLASS FUNDAMENTAL CASH FLOW DRIVERS THE DISTINCT MACRO SENSITIVITIES OF LISTED REAL ASSET CLASSES

Real Estate: Office Retail Multifamily Industrial Self-Storage Hospitality

Cash flows are derived from rents and are determined by property leases. The structures of these leases vary by factors such as property type and duration.

The diverse property types and lease structures of real estate are supportive of attractive performance potential throughout the economic cycle. For example, in periods of economic expansion, healthy demand can provide the pricing power for landlords to raise rents as leases expire. Rents can also increase as landlords make property improvements. Property types with longer lease terms offer downside protection from in-place leases and tend to be more stable. Meanwhile, properties with shorter lease terms tend to have a greater sensitivity to economic activity and inflation.

REIT Preferreds REIT preferred securities generate income from the revenue streams associated with REITs, which we have found to be consistent over time given that most tenants (outside of lodging and apartments) have long-term leases that reduce the volatility of the top line of these companies.

A fixed-rate perpetual preferred, whether a REIT preferred or another type of preferred, can have substantial interest-rate risk.

Infrastructure: Transportation Energy (C-Corps and MLPs) Utilities Communications

Cash flows are generated by long-lived assets that deliver essential products or services. Such cash flows tend to be a function of i) price, often tied to a regulatory or concession framework, and ii) volume, which can be steady in some asset types and more tied to levels of economic activity in others.

The diverse cash flow characteristics of infrastructure assets have the potential to deliver attractive performance profiles during the early, mid and late stages of the economic cycle. To illustrate, the contracted or regulated revenues of infrastructure assets are often linked to inflation, which can drive pricing power in periods of economic expansion. In periods of economic contraction, the cash flows of many infrastructure assets tend to be supported by steady demand, which can provide defensive characteristics.

Real Asset Debt: Investment Grade High Yield

Cash flows are derived from the underlying assets of companies engaged in real estate, infrastructure and natural resource equities.

As highlighted in the exhibits of this report, the debt of real-asset-related companies have historically shown less sensitivity to rising inflation and interest rates and broader categories of global fixed income.

ASSET CLASS FUNDAMENTAL CASH FLOW DRIVERS THE DISTINCT MACRO SENSITIVITIES OF LISTED REAL ASSET CLASSES

Natural Resource Equities

Natural resource equity cash flows are generally derived from the production, processing and distribution of commodities.

Our research shows that the cash flows derived from energy and metals & mining tend to be driven by factors that impact demand, such as population growth and economic activity. In contrast, we have observed that the cash flows from agricultural assets are driven more by factors that impact short-term supply, such as weather and water.

Commodities Commodity futures generally reflect the supply and demand dynamics of the underlying commodities.

The historical returns of commodity futures have generally shown a high sensitivity to changes in inflation. generally have a high sensitivity to changes in inflation.

TIPS TIPS are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Because of this they are much less sensitive to changes in economic conditions compared with stocks, commodities and credit-sensitive bonds.

While the par value of other types of bonds tends to be devalued with CPI inflation,iii the par value of TIPS rises with CPI inflation. Unlike most U.S. asset classes, TIPS are not subject to state and local taxes, although they are subject to federal income taxes.

You can obtain a prospectus for a Brookfield mutual fund by calling 1-855-777-8001 or visiting our website www.Brookfield.com . Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Real assets include real estate securities, infrastructure securities and natural resources securities. Property values may fall due to increasing vacancies or declining rents resulting from unanticipated economic, legal, cultural or technological developments. REITs are dependent upon management skills and generally may not be diversified. REITs are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers and self-liquidation. Infrastructure companies may be subject to a variety of factors that may adversely affect their business, including high interest costs, high leverage, regulation costs, economic slowdown, surplus capacity, increased competition, lack of fuel availability and energy conversation policies. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. Investing in emerging markets may entail special risks relating to potential economic, political or social instability and the risks of nationalization, confiscation or the imposition of restrictions on foreign investment. Investing in MLPs involves additional risks as compared to the risks of investing in common stock, including risks related to cash flow, dilution and voting rights. Concentrating investments in specific sectors or industries may increase volatility. Energy infrastructure companies are subject to risks specific to the industry such as fluctuations in commodity prices, reduced volumes of natural gas or other energy commodities, environmental hazards, changes in the macroeconomic or the regulatory environment or extreme weather. MLPs may trade less frequently than larger companies due to their smaller capitalizations which may result in erratic price movement or difficulty in buying or selling. Additional management fees and other expenses are associated with investing in MLPs. Additionally, investing in MLPs involves material income tax risks and certain other risks. Actual results, performance or events may be affected by, without limitation, (1) general economic conditions, (2) performance of financial


markets, (3) interest rate levels, (4) changes in laws and regulations and (5) changes in the policies of governments and/or regulatory authorities. Investing in MLPs may generate unrelated business taxable income (UBTI) for tax-exempt investors both during the holding period and at time of sale. This material is provided for general and educational purposes only, and is not intended to provide legal, tax or investment advice or to avoid legal penalties that may be imposed under U.S. federal tax laws. Investors should contact their own legal or tax advisors to learn more about the rules that may affect individual situations. Natural Resources Securities may be affected by numerous factors, including events occurring in nature, inflationary pressures and international politics. There is the risk that a significant investment in the Natural Resources sector will perform poorly during a downturn in the natural resource sector. For example, events occurring in nature (such as earthquakes or fires in prime natural resource areas) and political events (such as coups, military confrontations or acts of terrorism) can affect the overall supply of a natural resource and the value of companies involved in such natural resource. Political risks and the other risks to which foreign securities are subject may also affect domestic natural resource companies if they have significant operations or investments in foreign countries. Rising interest rates and general economic conditions may also affect the demand for natural resources. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as "junk bonds" and are considered speculative. Increases in interest rates can cause the prices of Fixed Income securities to decline, and the level of current income from a portfolio of Fixed Income securities may decline in certain interest rate environments. Investments in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. Some securities held may be difficult to sell, particularly during times of market turmoil. If a mutual fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet redemptions, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss. Using derivatives exposes a fund to additional risks, may increase the volatility of a fund's net asset value and may not provide the result intended. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Diversification does not assure against market loss. Earnings growth is not a measure of the fund's future performance.
