Returns of Infrastructure CompaniesReturns of Infrastructure Companies

• Returns on listed companies with infrastructure exposure

• Companies with a material exposure to infrastructure have demonstrated consistent, excess returns over the broader market since their emergence in the 1990s

• The experience in the listed market has been repeated in the unlisted markets by private funds, e.g., UK PFI funds established in the late 1990s

real returns are discovered

Very different asset class to

Infrastructure, though
