Now On Demand

As energy systems evolve, AI and data centers drive rising power demand, and governments face funding constraints, private infrastructure is taking on a larger role in long-term portfolios. Beyond energy, essential assets such as water systems, transportation networks, housing, and public facilities are attracting private capital through stable, contract-based cash flows.

In this session you will learn:

Key trends shaping private infrastructure; where demand is rising fastest, how higher rates are changing deal pricing, financing terms, and what “good value” looks like
Considerations for funds focused on transportation, digital, energy and energy transition, supply chain and logistics
What this means for advisor portfolios: income vs growth, key risks, and the tradeoffs that matter most in private infrastructure (liquidity, fees, and pacing).
