Old Westbury Global Real Assets Fund specializes in investing in a diversified portfolio of real assets and natural resources worldwide. Managed by Bessemer Trust, the fund seeks to provide investors with exposure to tangible assets such as infrastructure, commodities, and real estate, aiming for long-term capital appreciation and potential inflation hedging. Its strategy involves a global approach to identify and capitalize on opportunities within these foundational economic sectors.
The fund is an offering under the Old Westbury Funds umbrella, which traces its lineage back to Bessemer Trust, a wealth management firm established in 1907 by Henry Phipps to manage the assets of his family. Over decades, Bessemer Trust extended its services beyond the Phipps family, leveraging its deep expertise in investment management to create specialized funds designed for sophisticated clients, with the Global Real Assets Fund emerging as part of this evolution to address specific market needs.
Serving institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals, the Old Westbury Global Real Assets Fund provides a mechanism for portfolio diversification beyond traditional equities and fixed income. The fund's vision is to deliver consistent returns and preserve capital by investing in assets that historically demonstrate resilience during periods of market volatility and rising inflation, positioning investors for enduring financial stability.
