EP 197: Ardian Seizes Mid-Market Infrastructure Assets Opportunities

Ardian recently announced the final closing for its US$2.1bn Americas infrastructure fund – Ardian Americas Infrastructure Fund V (AAIF V). Its team, including Co-Head Mark Voccola, has deployed more than US$1bn in investments across the energy, renewables and transportation sectors. Ardian is a pioneering manager in decarbonizing infrastructure assets in line with global climate change agreements and a major renewable energy portfolio is part of this commitment. Ardian is also introducing energy efficiency policies across all of its portfolio companies. In a recent press release about the team’s funding success to date Mark said, “The market opportunity for high-quality, mid-market infrastructure assets is compelling, and even more so with the powerful tailwinds from the Inflation Reduction Act.”
