Having compiled all the IJInvestor data on infrastructure closed-end fundraising for the third quarter of 2022, the headline figure already almost outstrips full-year 2021… with a record-breaking tally clearly on the cards

This quarter, primary financing deals overall continue to hold steady although there has been a significant drop in refinancings

The first half of 2022 has logged a significant dip in global infrastructure finance activity with a slump in transaction numbers, but a slight uptick in value. However – overall – data show a marked decline in activity on the preceding 2 half-year periods

There can be no doubt about it – infrastructure fundraising will not just beat the record-breaking levels achieved last year. That is a virtual certainty. Now the expectation is for smashing records in a spectacular fashion

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
