The Cohen & Steers Infrastructure Fund has surged 22.46% in 2024, offering over 7% yield and monthly distributions, making it a strong income-generating investment. With the Fed expected to cut rates, infrastructure companies are poised for revenue growth and earnings expansion, benefiting from increased CapEx spending by tech giants.

UTF: A Solid Infrastructure Fund For Monthly Distributions

Cohen & Steers Infrastructure Fund (UTF) is a closed-end fund investing in diversified infrastructure from around the globe.

A lower rate environment should bode well for UTF as borrowing cost pressures ease and the underlying interest-rate sensitive portfolio also performs better.

UTF: Utility And Infrastructure Fund With 7.6% Plus Income For The Long Term

Cohen & Steers Infrastructure Fund is a closed-end fund that invests primarily in securities of companies in the infrastructure space. The UTF closed-end fund currently provides a reasonable yield of 7.6% plus; however, it uses a high level of leverage, roughly 30% of total assets. Currently, shares are trading at a small premium of 1.5%. UTF has a decent long-term record of over 20 years for a Utility and infrastructure-focused fund. However, it has performed poorly recently, which is in line with the performance of the sector. Going forward, there are certain tailwinds that should help this fund in general.
