Colliers International Group announced the launch of the Harrison Street Infrastructure Active ETF (ticker NFRX) on January 30 2026. The fund is the first ETF issued by Harrison Street Asset Management and will invest in listed infrastructure companies across utilities, midstream energy, digital, and transportation sectors, giving investors exposure to essential services with durable cash flows.
The launch adds a new distribution channel to Colliers’ investment‑management business, which already manages more than $108 billion in assets. By offering an actively managed ETF, the firm can attract both retail and institutional investors seeking diversified infrastructure exposure, generate additional management‑fee income, and broaden its footprint in the real‑asset space. The move is a key element of Colliers’ strategy to grow its investment‑management platform and support its broader engineering and real‑estate services businesses.
The infrastructure ETF market is expanding as investors seek inflation‑hedged, resilient assets amid market volatility. NFRX differentiates itself from passive peers by employing active management and a focused sector allocation, positioning it to capture demand for sustainable and resilient infrastructure. The fund’s portfolio will be managed by Robert Becker, Hasan Goncu, and Casey Frazier, all of whom bring extensive experience in infrastructure investing.
Robert Becker, chief investment strategist at Harrison Street, said the launch reflects “unprecedented global need for infrastructure development and a strong outlook for growth across infrastructure sub‑sectors, driven by long‑term secular trends such as AI, digitization, re‑industrialization, electrification, and supply‑chain development.” The statement underscores the firm’s confidence that the ETF will help investors participate in the growing market for listed infrastructure.
The launch strengthens Colliers’ real‑asset offering and positions the company to capture growing demand for infrastructure exposure. With the ETF’s active management and sector focus, Colliers can deepen its presence in the infrastructure space, generate recurring fee income, and support its broader strategy of delivering sustainable, resilient assets to clients. The move signals the firm’s commitment to expanding its investment‑management platform and enhancing its competitive position in a rapidly evolving market.
