AMP Capital has launched a website with the specific purpose of educating SMSF investors about portfolio diversification, providing information on asset classes other than the traditionally favoured areas of domestic equities, direct property and cash.
Specifically, the SMSF microsite highlights the potential benefits of including different types of property and infrastructure inside an SMSF investment portfolio.
“With cash rates declining, SMSF investors are looking for other options to ensure their long-term savings and retirement needs will be met,” AMP Capital head of retail Craig Keary said.
“Investing in real assets, such as property and infrastructure, can provide opportunities to access predictable and regular income while diversifying the SMSF investments by accessing unique investment opportunities.
“AMP Capital has used its deep investment expertise to develop a dedicated website to educate SMSF investors and their advisers on the benefits of diversifying their portfolio and investing in infrastructure and property.”
Keary said AMP Capital was looking to aid SMSF investors and their advisers with its expertise in infrastructure and property to begin with, but would be doing the same with other asset classes in the future.
