M&A

The first quarter of 2022 got off to a shaky start for the global financing of infrastructure and energy, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine takes its toll, market nervousness settles in and the price of debt finds a new reality

If the stellar performance in infrastructure fundraising in Q1 2022 continues for the remainder of the year, we can expect another record-breaking 12 months of infrastructure fundraising

Data from the second year of coronavirus show that global infrastructure financing is regaining momentum with project finance standing at nearly $529.8 billion – a 38.4% growth compared to 2019 pre-pandemic levels and the highest yearly value since 2017

The year of 2021 proved a blockbuster year for infrastructure fundraising and M&A activity, according to IJInvestor research

The IJGlobal league tables for Q3 2021 are now live, logging infrastructure and project finance activity across the globe, and recording values at $270.3 billion, securing a growth of 6.25% compared to Q3 2020 while maintaining levels way above the quarterly average ($157.8 billion) since the start of 2017

IJInvestor has released its Funds & Investors Report for Q3 2021 which has seen infrastructure funds raise $21.54 billion globally against a backdrop of macro-economic volatility, a return to physical events and the much-anticipated COP26
