Description

The Infrastructure Investments Group ("IIG" or the "Group") is a dedicated team and business unit within JPMAM Global Alternatives focused on advising a perpetual-life strategy that offers investors a moderate-risk, long-term approach to private infrastructure equity investing that is diversified both in terms of geography and subsector.

The strategy advised by IIG is one of the largest of its kind with over US$30 billion in committed capital under management, representing approximately 10 times growth in assets under management over the past 10 years.

The current portfolio includes 20 companies that in turn own c.800 underlying assets globally.

The strategy focuses on active management through control positions (majority equity ownership) in private companies as the long-term owner of companies that provide essential services (water, heat and electricity), such as renewable energy; water, natural gas and electric utilities; and trains and airports, which are all vital to the economic health and productivity of the communities in which they operate.

Geographically the strategy is focused primarily in the U.S., Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and secondarily in other OECD countries.

Facilitated by the perpetual structure, the strategy in particular targets sustained growth through both new investments and capital deployment via bolt-on acquisitions to existing platform companies.

Control positions permit significant influence on investments and IIG strives to add value via the formulation and implementation of business process improvements, active asset management and board of director participation.

Providing local essential services - with employees, customers and communities that often overlap - requires the investments IIG advises to be well-governed, have a strong culture and be stewards of the environment in order to fulfill the terms of their social license to operate (safe, reliable, affordable, sustainable).

IIG is focused on developing and leading exceptional teams made up of individuals who share our values, namely:
