Infrastructure & Energy

New South Wales is set to launch a 1.5GW tender targeting gas generation, a notable reversal for a state whose electricity roadmap had previously sidelined gas-fired projects. Investors will be watching closely for how the award structure and timing affect the state's broader capacity build-out. Meanwhile, Congress faces crucial infrastructure decisions, with a bipartisan compromise looking plausible but continued uncertainty weighing on investor sentiment.

Real Estate Capital

LaSalle has strengthened its secondaries franchise by hiring Marcus Day, formerly co-head of Brookfield's real estate secondaries platform, to grow its indirect business. Dutch insurer A.s.r. also expanded its global footprint, as its real assets arm made its first Asia-Pacific fund commitments, backing three core and core-plus managers.

Healthcare Deals

In healthcare private equity, Eir Partners acquired Accumulus Technologies, adding to a steady flow of life sciences transactions that continues to attract sponsor capital.
