- Lazard Listed Infrastructure ETF (GLIX) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks total return through investment in a highly selective portfolio of 25-50 large-cap equity securities of preferred listed infrastructure companies with market capitalizations exceeding $2 billion; these companies operate essential, monopoly-like assets such as electricity networks, toll roads, utilities, airports, and railroads, emphasizing inflation-linked cash flows, low volatility, diversification benefits, and steady income generation; the fund is passively hedged to USD to mitigate currency risk and employs a benchmark-aware, bottom-up fundamental analysis approach targeting global opportunities including the United States, developed markets, and some emerging markets. Issued by Lazard Asset Management LLC, a subsidiary of Lazard, Inc., which was founded in 1848 and is headquartered in New York, GLIX focuses on infrastructure operators providing higher revenue predictability and balanced risk-reward profiles positioned between equities and fixed income. Top holdings include National Grid plc (8.38%), Vinci SA (8.28%), Canadian National Railway Co. (8.23%), and others representing utilities, transportation, and energy infrastructure, with a net expense ratio of 0.96%, total net assets of approximately $16.3 million, and 39 holdings as of recent data.
Launched on October 3, 2025, via NYSE Arca, GLIX represents Lazard Asset Management's expansion of its ETF lineup to deliver decades of proprietary listed infrastructure expertise in a transparent, liquid format for institutional and retail investors seeking inflation resilience and portfolio stability amid global infrastructure spending growth. The fund builds on Lazard's pioneering Global Listed Infrastructure strategy, managed by a specialized team including Portfolio Managers Bertrand Cliquet, Matthew Landy, John Mulquiney, and Warryn Robertson, with no reported acquisitions, partnerships, funding rounds, or other major operational changes since inception given its recent launch. Distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC, GLIX targets long-term investors navigating modernization of aging systems and urbanization trends across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and select emerging regions.
