Diversified private asset portfolios allow investors to access a broad range of asset classes, including private credit assets that would traditionally have been the preserve of banks. BNP Paribas Asset Management’s capabilities allow us to offer investors a broad blend of private market and real asset exposure with ESG-aligned assets.
What are Diversified Private Assets?
The asset universe has expanded rapidly over the past decade. More stringent capital requirements on banks has seen the disintermediation of traditional financing models by asset managers and institutional investors across a broad range of asset classes such as:
| Infrastructure debt | Commercial real estate debt | Mid-market loans | Asset backed securities | Mortgage-backed securities |
Private assets have attractive characteristics that can help investors build resilience into their portfolios whilst also meeting ambitious environmental, social and governance (ESG) targets as investments in many of the underlying asset classes, such as infrastructure debt, have a tangible effect on the real economy providing additional societal benefits and include positive impact.
