About FTRDX
First Trust Real Assets Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end interval fund managed by First Trust Capital Management L.P. It seeks long-term real returns above inflation through tax-efficient current income and capital appreciation by investing at least 80% of its net assets in real assets and real asset companies. The fund employs a multi-sector, multi-strategy approach, with a strategic overweight to private real estate equity and private real estate debt, alongside select exposure to infrastructure, natural resources like timberland and agriculture, and a liquidity sleeve for low-volatility returns. Investments span real estate equity across industrial, multi-family, retail, office, and residential sectors primarily in North America; real estate debt focused on direct lending for capital preservation and income; and essential infrastructure services. It provides diversified access to institutional-quality private funds, REITs, publicly traded equity and debt securities, private debt instruments, and direct co-investments, offering tax advantages such as depreciation shields, inflation protection from income historically outpacing inflation, and lower volatility from private structures. The fund targets quarterly distributions and quarterly repurchase offers of 5-25% of outstanding shares at NAV, making real asset exposure accessible without accreditation requirements or high minimums.
