APG Asset Management's infrastructure chief Jan-Willem Ruisbroek will step down on July 1 after nearly two decades with the Dutch pension giant. The €590bn asset manager confirmed the planned departure, marking the end of a significant tenure overseeing infrastructure investments and private natural capital strategy.

Ruisbroek's exit comes during a period of continued growth in infrastructure investing, as institutional investors increasingly allocate capital to real assets. His role involved managing substantial portfolios across energy, transport, and natural resources sectors, making him a notable figure in European infrastructure markets.

The timing suggests APG will need to find a successor quickly to maintain momentum in its infrastructure platform. Colleagues describe Ruisbroek as instrumental in building APG's private markets capabilities during his long tenure.

Ruisbroek's departure removes a long-tenured leader from a major infrastructure investment platform just as the asset class faces evolving regulatory and sustainability challenges.
