this core asset because you're thinking of things which are essential services to everyday society. So it's roads, it's bridges, it's sanitation, it's water treatment, all of these things together.
Pretty boring, pretty defensive.
Purposely boring, purposely boring.
But long-term contracts.
So when you have those long-term contracts, these essential assets, it provides diversification. This is something which is delivering returns or delivering growth that's not necessarily tied to what's going on in the broad economy. The fact is because it is such a core asset, when you're thinking of those, these are elements which have very inelastic demand.
You always need these things. They're at the base of what our societies, our municipalities are run on. So the fact that you have that stable demand, it is an asset that provides long-term, stable income. It can provide protection from inflation. But then when you add these different elements like AI demand, renewable energy demand, that's the growth.

So what I'm hearing is that we've got the defensive, more steady eddy type of the infrastructure space, but also because of new capital expenditure that's being driven by governments and also companies, we've now got these new parts of the market delivering GDP plus type growth.
And we think both work in a portfolio. You have that stable, core income-generating, low correlation to broad markets. But then you can combine that with the growth element as well. And that's why it's a very interesting space.
When you look since 2020, you've seen profits of infrastructure companies grow by 16% per annum. But yet returns in the markets have only been 4%. So that also gives a unique opportunity for investors to take advantage of that dislocation that is existing right now.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INVESTMENTS AND POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST: Conflicts of interest will arise whenever JPMorgan Chase Bank NA or any of its affiliates (together "J.P.

Conflicts will result, for example (to the extent the following activities are permitted in your account): (1) when J.P. Morgan invests in an investment product such as a mutual fund, structured product, separately managed account or hedge fund issued or managed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or an affiliate. such as J.P.

Other conflicts will result because of relationships that J.P. Morgan has with other clients or when J.P. Morgan acts for its own account. Investment strategies are selected from both J.P. Morgan and third-party asset managers and are subject to a review process by our manager research teams. From this pool of strategies our portfolio construction teams select those strategies we believe fit our asset allocation goals and forward-looking views in order to meet the portfolio's investment objective. As a general matter, we prefer J.P. Morgan managed strategies. We expect the proportion of J.P. Morgan managed strategies will be high (in fact, up to 100 percent) in strategies such as, for example, cash and high-quality fixed income, subject to applicable law and any account-specific considerations.
