We think in decades, not years and quarters. We build financial models that extend 30 or 40 years, reflecting the nature of the underlying assets we invest in. These essential infrastructure assets serve communities and underpin the smooth-running of economies over life spans stretching 50 to 70 years, or more.
With a long-term hold strategy and active management approach, we seek to identify opportunities to re-invest capital in value-accretive improvement programs or bolt-on acquisitions over time, rather than withdrawing it for distributions.
