ClearBridge Sustainable Infrastructure ETF (INFR) Research

The ClearBridge Sustainable Infrastructure ETF (INFR) is designed to allocate capital to equity securities within the infrastructure sector that satisfy stringent sustainability and financial benchmarks. The fund seeks out infrastructure companies, irrespective of their market capitalization, that exhibit appealing valuations, robust cash flow generation, and attractive shareholder distributions. This broad universe spans diverse sub-industries such as oil and gas storage and transportation, natural gas utilities, and airport operational services (excluding air traffic control providers). Its proprietary investment methodology incorporates a series of rigorous screens—covering liquidity, exposure, quality, and income—which delve into fundamental aspects like physical asset ownership, the nature of services rendered, any monopolistic characteristics, and the presence of strong contractual or regulatory frameworks. Furthermore, each qualified company undergoes an assessment that assigns it a forward-looking rating over a five-year horizon, scrutinizing its dedication to ESG principles, their integration, and practical efforts, with a particular emphasis on climate-related risks and opportunities. While primarily focused on domestic opportunities, the fund maintains the flexibility to invest up to 20% of its assets in non-U.S. companies. As an actively managed vehicle, investment decisions are made at the full discretion of the portfolio managers.
