InfraRed Capital Partners has won the Gold Award in the “Best Infrastructure Fund Manager” category at the Partnerships Awards 2014, an annual awards series hosted by Partnerships Bulletin and PPP Bulletin International that recognizes outstanding contributions to the forward progress of public-private partnerships (PPPs) around the globe. The Best Infrastructure Fund Manager Award honoured excellence among fund managers in the delivery of PPP fund management in 2013. The winners of this year’s Partnerships Awards were announced at a ceremony in London on 5 June 2014.
On making the award the judging panel said:
‘Over the past 12 months InfraRed Capital Partners has continued to attract investors to its range of listed funds, which remain stable investments that are outperforming the general market. Its PPP and PFI asset-focused fund, HICL, saw market capitalisation grow by 30% during 2013. HICL now has over 5,500 shareholders with an increasing interest coming from pension funds making their first investment into infrastructure. Over the course of 2013, InfraRed made 21 new PPP investments across its primary and secondary funds, which covered a wide variety of social and transport infrastructure across five different countries.’
