ABOUT THE TEAM

The infrastructure asset class was introduced at PSP Investments in April 2006, with an investment strategy focused on a long-term investment horizon (greater than 10 years) while seeking adequate liquidity and a viable exit strategy. As at March 2023, net Infrastructure assets under management stood at CAD$29.4bn, with 10.5% 5-year annualized portfolio returns per fiscal year. The target size of investments typically ranges from $1.0bn to $2.0bn through direct investments in private companies, however there is flexibility to make smaller equity investments through one of our platform investments. With over 30 direct investments across the globe, PSP Infrastructure invests 40% in Europe, 40% in the Americas and 20% in Asia-Pacific.
