About PDPAX

Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Asset Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to provide long-term capital appreciation through a diversified, multi-asset portfolio. Its primary purpose is to protect investors’ purchasing power by investing across a broad spectrum of real assets, including global real estate, global infrastructure, natural resources, commodities securities, and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). The fund employs both active and passive strategies, utilizing a multi-manager approach for dynamic portfolio construction and diligent rebalancing. Managed by Duff & Phelps Investment Management, a firm specializing in real asset investments since 1932, the fund leverages sector expertise and aims to offer a strong portfolio hedge. Real assets within the fund are selected for their historical ability to mitigate inflation risk and provide diversification benefits due to their typically lower correlation with traditional equity and bond markets. By allocating assets across multiple underlying mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, the fund achieves broad exposure to sectors integral to global economic infrastructure and resource development, playing a significant role in wealth preservation strategies for investors seeking moderate to aggressive global allocation.
