Infrastructure
The NGS Infrastructure investment option mainly invests in Australian and international infrastructure assets through the share market. These assets are subject to equity-like returns and risk.
It may be right for you if you’re after long-term investment returns above inflation while accepting some short-term volatility. As a guide, this option is likely to have higher volatility than bonds, but lower volatility than equities.
