If there’s anything advisors have learned this year it’s to expect the unexpected, and that volatility isn’t likely to end anytime soon. As we look ahead to the rest of 2024, we’ll explore one strategy that may help advisors weather the storm – real assets. Real asset categories – such as natural resources, infrastructure and real estate – have historically served as an effective hedge against inflation, demonstrated resilience across economic cycles, and provided diversification to more traditional portfolios. As such, they can remain a popular option for navigating inflation and recessionary risk. My guest today, Christopher Huemmer, senior client portfolio manager at FlexShares Exchange Traded Funds, will offer insights into how to invest in real assets and ways to get exposure with ETFs.
