Investor Interest in U.S. timberland has continued to gain momentum. Why? Because timberland offers long-term, income-generating exposure to a real asset that’s historically resilient and uncorrelated to other asset classes.
As shown in the graph, US timberland’s average annual return over the last three calendar years was higher than mainstream equity or fixed income indices. This was primarily due to timberland being relatively less affected by the rise in interest rates in 2022 which materially impacted stock and bond prices.
We believe timberland offers a differentiated source of total return in a market searching for income, resilience, and inflation protection.
