The Internet of Things holds incredible promise – sensors embedded in everything from shipping pallets to cars and fridges, passing on data and making everything “smart”.

For decades, the playbook for Australia’s wholesale investors has remained relatively unchanged: pick between the slow-moving, illiquid reliability of tangible assets like property and gold, or chase the frictionless, high-velocity liquidity of public equity and digital markets. But as macroeconomic volatility spikes and a structural housing deficit reshapes private debt demand, sophisticated investors are demanding […]
