Real Estate Fund Shifts Gears Against Inflation


Rampant fears over the big bad wolf of inflation have convinced the shareholders of one real estate fund to change tack. Wilmington Trust on Tuesday announced that the three-year-old Wilmington Multi-Manager Real Estate Securities Fund has become the Wilmington Multi-Manager Real Asset Fund, following a vote of approval by shareholders.

Instead of sticking exclusively with real estate-related securities like REITs, the reinvented fund will also go in for inflation-linked bonds, such as TIPS, and securities related to commodities and natural resources. Advised by Wilmington subsidiary Rodney Square Management Corporation, the fund also has a new subadvisor, Standish Mellon Asset Management , in addition to existing subadvisors AEW Management and Advisors and Real Estate Management Services Group.
