Development Profile
Each underlying strategy has the capacity to engage in a small degree of development, with the private asset portfolio having a relatively minimal exposure to development assets. This small allocation allows the Manager, where appropriate, to capitalise on areas where construction is a more effective way to gain access to assets or sectors less accessible in the secondary market. The development pipeline has moderated more recently, especially in real estate. We would expect construction exposure across JARA's portfolio to remain relatively low on an aggregate basis.
Currency
The main currency exposures of the portfolio (including liquidity funds) are as follows:
Currency 31.05.23 31.08.23 30.11.23 USD 65% 58% 60% GBP 2% 20% 20% JPY 7% 6% 6% AUD 5% 4% 4% SGD 3% 3% 3% RMB 3% 2% 2% EUR 10% 2% 2% NZD 2% 1% 1% HKD 1% 1% 1%
Other currencies also represent <2% of NAV. Numbers may not sum to 100% due to rounding.
The above reflects the changes in currency exposure following the allocation to the hedged vehicle of the Infrastructure strategy on 3rd July 2023.
