The Target Return Portfolio invests in unlisted alternative assets including infrastructure (such as airports, tollways, ports and power stations), property (such as landmark buildings), private equity funds, natural resources and high-yield debt. Many of these assets have long-term leases and income streams to the Fund. The assets are not directly linked to share markets, so they are expected to provide a buffer against the short term ups and downs of such markets.

Each asset in the Target Return Portfolio aims to achieve a target rate of return set by MTAA Super; the target reflects the risks and expected return inherent in the investment. Performance is measured relative to the targets. In contrast, the performance of the Market Linked Portfolio is measured against the relevant benchmark index.
