Opportunities in Private Infrastructure
Overview
Obsiido invites Canadian wealth & investment professionals to an exclusive conversation with experts from KKR & Co. and Fengate Asset Management, two leading investors in the global infrastructure space, as we unpack the evolving opportunity set within private infrastructure.
Private infrastructure has been one of the strongest-performing segments across real assets over the past 10 years. By delivering stable, inflation-linked cash flows, core and core-plus strategies have produced strong absolute returns.
Infrastructure is evolving beyond roads, ports, and bridges to meet modern digital and energy demands. Surging power needs from AI and electrification are driving investment into new infrastructure systems and energy sources. Private Infrastructure offers a compelling investment opportunity that is now becoming accessible to the wealth management channel.
Designed for investment & wealth professionals, this live webinar will explore:
Why private infrastructure is gaining traction in institutional portfolios—and why it matters now
Key themes shaping the landscape, including decarbonization, digitalization, and deglobalization
The role of infrastructure in building resilient portfolios, especially in today’s uncertain markets
How to evaluate and access private infrastructure as part of a broader alternatives strategy
Whether you're new to infrastructure or looking to expand your knowledge, this is a timely and practical discussion to help you better understand—and position—this fast-maturing asset class for your clients.
