Strategy

Investment Strategy

Real Assets and Essential Services

We target infrastructure that provides essential services and we invest in real assets that have barriers-to-entry.

Focus on Growth Capital

We seek to capitalize on trends driving demand for the infrastructure of tomorrow by providing growth capital for creating, expanding and/or consolidating assets or companies into scaled enterprises.

Value-Added Approach

We take an active role in managing our portfolio companies and add value by using a commercial, “private equity” skill-set.

Step-change in Value

Our goal is to deploy our capital, expertise, and relationships to achieve a step change in value when our investments are sold to traditional infrastructure investors and companies.

Middle Market Strategy

We focus on the less competitive middle market infrastructure segment where we believe there is greater potential to add value.

Partnership
Ethos

We emphasize personal and corporate ethics and long-term relationships with our management teams, colleagues, investors, and other stakeholders.

Resiliency Needs

We provide growth capital to middle market infrastructure businesses with the goal of creating mature, traditional or core infrastructure assets.
