How the II 100 has changed over the past decade

In this episode, senior editor Bruno Alves, deputy editor Kalliope Gourntis and Americas editor Zak Bentley look back on how our Infrastructure Investor 100 ranking of the largest infrastructure managers has changed over the past decade, following publication of the latest edition earlier this month. Comparing the 2024 edition to the 2014 one reveals a plethora of changes, including the ranking’s sevenfold growth, the rise of specialist strategies, the remarkable growth of some of the managers on it, the disappearance of about a third of the managers that used to feature on the ranking, and much more.

KKR: ‘We take a targeted-rifle approach’ to new strategies

In this episode, Infrastructure Investor senior editor Bruno Alves sits down with KKR global head of infrastructure Raj Agrawal. KKR’s infrastructure unit has been on a remarkable growth trajectory, from being the 17th largest infrastructure manager in the world in 2014 to becoming the third largest in our recently released Infrastructure Investor 100 ranking. During that time, it added to its global core-plus strategy by launching strategies dedicated to core infrastructure, the Asia-Pacific region and, more recently, its infrastructure-adjacent global climate strategy. Strategy building is thus at the heart of the discussion with Agrawal, as he details the four preconditions that have to be fulfilled before KKR launches a new strategy. He also discusses how the firm navigated high-profile departures, how it ensures team retention, why it eschews sector considerations and takes a risk-based approach to investing in the asset class, and he touches on the opportunity in industrial infrastructure.

Will the US ever truly embrace private infra financing?

In this episode, Infrastructure Investor senior editor Bruno Alves sits down with Sadek Wahba, founder, chairman and managing partner of independent manager I Squared Capital. Top of the agenda is Wahba’s new book – Build: Investing in America’s Infrastructure – which chronicles the US’s underinvestment in infrastructure, contextualises the historical reasons for the dominance of public sector infrastructure financing, proposes a range of scenarios to increase private sector participation, and much more. In the discussion, Wahba shares his thoughts on what change could look like for the US infrastructure financing landscape, the political obstacles that stand in the way, the importance of the public sector being able to share on the upside, and, of course, how the outcome of the upcoming US election – including a potential second Trump presidency – could affect the asset class.
