We are an active investor in Asian infrastructure with particular expertise in India and China. We also have European expertise with various assets located throughout the UK and Continental Europe.

Unlisted infrastructure

AMP Capital’s unlisted infrastructure funds and customised separate account solutions offer clients the benefit of direct access to infrastructure assets. Our international network of contacts with government and business partners, as well as infrastructure operators and developers, provides us with constant access to deal flow, enhancing the opportunities we can offer our clients.

Investors benefit from AMP Capital’s proprietary portfolio construction and risk modelling tools, which ensure portfolios are optimally constructed and maintained within the context of portfolio objectives.

Our investment approach adds value for investors through active asset management, which generally includes board representation. This gives us the opportunity to influence the strategic and operational direction of our investments, including value-adding activities that generate additional returns for our clients.

AMP Capital’s experienced infrastructure debt investment team has successfully invested in the subordinated debt of infrastructure businesses since 2001, generating consistent returns across varied economic cycles.

Our focus on assets in developed economies with stable political and legal environments, combined with our extensive network of international contacts with both issuers and underwriters of private infrastructure, allows us to source and select assets producing superior risk adjusted returns for our clients.
