Our read on IFRA
AMost infrastructure funds pick a side: the companies that build the stuff, or the ones that own it. IFRA holds both, stays entirely American, and charges well under the category's typical fee.
The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. companies with infrastructure exposure, balancing infrastructure enablers and infrastructure asset owners.
Why people hold it
- 0.30% a year, roughly half the typical fee in the infrastructure category and cheaper than bigger-name rivals IGF (0.37%), GII (0.40%) and PAVE (0.47%).
- Tracks the NYSE FactSet U.S. Infrastructure Index, which balances the enablers (builders and suppliers) against the asset owners, rather than betting on the construction cycle alone.
- Roughly 160 holdings spread the theme wide, and the fund pays out quarterly.
- Running since 2018 with over a billion in assets, it sits among the strongest implementations in its infrastructure peer group.
Worth knowing
- US-only by design. The overseas toll roads, airports and utilities that global peers like IGF and GII hold are simply not here.
- A narrow slice of the market, so it can move quite differently from a broad US index in either direction.
- Volume is moderate rather than heavy. Limit orders are the sane default, especially around the open and close.
