Real Assets Fundraising & Strategy

Infrastructure fundraising remains buoyant despite broader economic headwinds, as French manager InfraVia successfully secured €8 billion for its sixth European fund, reaching its hard cap primarily through commitments from non-European Limited Partners. This institutional demand for tangible assets is mirrored in the real estate sector, where CBRE Investment Management closed its seventh Asia value-add fund, raising $2.1 billion from 15 global LPs, including significant backing from The State Pension Fund of Finland and NZ Super. Meanwhile, Malaysian pension fund KWAP is targeting "disciplined diversification" over the next three years, maintaining a strong conviction in the high-growth living sector across Australia, Japan, and the UK as part of its strategy.
