Infrastructure Fundraising

The infrastructure fundraising market is seeing significant activity, with Conifer Infrastructure closing its debut fund at a hard-cap of $900 million, targeting a 25% net IRR. This fund has already deployed approximately $190 million across hydroelectric, biogas, and helium platforms. Similarly, Seraya Partners reached the halfway point for its $1.5 billion sophomore fund, which is expected to finalize by the end of 2026. These developments underscore a strong investor appetite for infrastructure assets, a sector the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is increasingly viewing as the next frontier for nature-based finance. The burgeoning interest in infrastructure is also driving a focus on secondary market transactions, with Allianz Global Investors increasingly prioritizing infra secondaries. Meanwhile, the sector is also facilitating significant corporate turnarounds, as evidenced by the "phoenix moment" for Uniper, supported by infrastructure funds as detailed by Infra funds.
