The pension fund aims to continue its relationship with Stonepeak, a first infrastructure GP they've 'grown with' over the years.

The pension fund's strategy reflects a broader trend among institutional investors seeking outperforming infrastructure assets. With infrastructure funds attracting significant capital, this commitment underscores the sector's appeal. The fund's decision to re-up with Stonepeak indicates confidence in the firm's track record and future potential.
