03 Aug 2018

Equitix, a leading UK infrastructure investor, announces that it has agreed to acquire a portfolio of social infrastructure and renewable assets from NIBC Infrastructure Partners on 2 August 2018. The portfolio includes 13 assets in the UK and Europe and, subject to closing conditions, will be acquired in a single transaction.

 

On completion of the transaction, Equitix will become owners of the renewables and social infrastructure assets that include UK health care, education and care home facilities, as well as renewable wind, solar and waste plants.

The NIBC European Infrastructure Fund portfolio includes investments in both the UK and Europe and will enable Equitix to increase its foothold in continental European jurisdictions, including Spain, Germany, France and Belgium, as well as to consolidate its position in UK social infrastructure assets. 

Hugh Crossley, CIO of Equitix comments:“As we continue to diversify and grow our portfolio, we are always looking out for attractive opportunities to acquire high-quality assets that meet our criteria. We are confident that the NIBC European Infrastructure Fund portfolio does just this and will allow us to leverage our local expertise and grow our exposure to new European infrastructure markets.”

“We have demonstrated a strong track record in our ownership and management of a wide range of infrastructure assets and, as such, we’re pleased to be further consolidating our capabilities and adding these assets to our institutional investment portfolios.”
