Looking for regular income without the drama of equities? Residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) could be the answer, says Michael Frearson, CFA, RAM Director and Head of Fixed Income. Michael told Livewire Markets that RMBS can play a valuable role in the alternative bucket for conservative investors by delivering “boringly reliable” income of over 8% pa. “They have highly contracted revenue streams and capital stability from being floating rate investments,” Michael says. “So they're a great source of income for investors.” He says there’s a lot to like about the RMBS market right now, including an attractive yield and a supportive environment as rates are set to ease. The Real Income Fund has delivered a return of 8.35% over the past year by predominantly investing in high-quality RMBS, meeting its target of RBA Cash Rate + 4%, with a strong focus on capital stability and risk management.

Matthew Strotton, RAM Executive Director and Head of Real Estate, believes 2025 could be a big year for healthcare real estate, with six new deals in the pipeline for the RAM Australia Healthcare Opportunity Fund (HOF). He says it’s a once-in-a-cycle opportunity for investors to capitalise off poor supply and growing demand ahead of a changing interest rate cycle. “We anticipate confidence to re-emerge in the following 12 months which will stabilise asset yields,” Matthew told Livewire Markets. “Moving as quickly as possible across all risk assets will present our investors with an attractive opportunity." Healthcare is one of the most innovative and technologically driven global sectors. Combined with population growth and the ageing population, this supports the ongoing demand for healthcare real estate, resulting in long-duration contracts with consistent yield compared to other real estate sub-sectors.
