TBLU offers exposure to developed-market all-cap water companies. The fund selects firms that derive at least 40% of gross revenues from either water infrastructure or water equipment and/or services. Water infrastructure companies are those that provide public water distribution, engineering, construction or consulting. Water equipment companies are those who provide water pipes, valves, pumps or water efficiency products such as filtration, treatment, and testing of water. Service companies provide technologies that facilitate management of water distribution, usage, treatment, and irrigation. The resulting portfolio includes a few dozen names, heavily weighted towards the US.
