The Zenflow Hybrid Strategy

Infrastructure as Debt-Alternative

REITs and InvITs have emerged as the premier yield-plus instruments for conservative and moderate investors. SEBI mandates these trusts to distribute 90% of net distributable cash flows to unitholders, providing a disciplined income stream. Underlying rental contracts (REITs) and toll/tariff escalations (InvITs) are typically linked to inflation, protecting your purchasing power. Low correlation with traditional equity and debt products makes them a stabiliser for family office advisory portfolios.
