Sector Investment 3 Days

Infrastructure & Energy Transition

Infrastructure fundraising is experiencing a $1.2tn resurgence as managers reposition portfolios for a $7tn capital expenditure supercycle driven by artificial intelligence. Large-scale general partners are currently outlining strategic visions to capture this demand, while AllianzGI is pivoting away from a singular focus on flagship funds, demanding more specialized mandates from their infrastructure managers. This shift coincides with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners targeting €16bn for its latest renewables flagship, following the successful €12bn close of its previous vehicle in March 2025. Meanwhile, Reinova is nearing a $500mn first close for its debut energy transition fund, with the manager on track to secure nearly two-thirds of its target within ten months of the strategy’s launch.

Private Equity & Healthcare

Healthcare investment activity remains aggressive, as Ampersand Capital Partners closed a $1.5bn fund at its hard cap to target growth-stage opportunities in the life sciences sector. The deal environment is further energized by Align Capital Partners' acquisition of Heritage Imaging, marking a new platform investment as private equity firms continue to consolidate regional diagnostic service providers. In the broader market, Altérra joined a $600mn co-investment led by I Squared Capital for a Peruvian power asset, signaling a trend where anchor investors are increasingly opting for partnership structures to mitigate execution risks on complex or less established strategies.

Real Estate & Credit

The private real estate credit market is reaching an industry-wide inflection point as the launch of the PERE Credit 100 ranking highlights an era where non-bank lenders assume a larger role in refinancing institutional property portfolios. This transition is bolstering the appeal of core real estate as an alternative, with Clarion Partners noting that core assets offer a defensive buffer against rising infrastructure risks and heightened geopolitical volatility. As institutional capital providers recalibrate, the focus remains on leveraging these shifting dynamics to support property valuations while managing exposure to broader macroeconomic headwinds.
