Brunel Pension Partnership publishes on its website:
“Brunel Pension Partnership (Brunel) is happy to announce a commitment of €50m to Mirova’s CIF2 on behalf of its six Clients that have allocated to the Brunel Infrastructure Portfolio.
“Brunel is pleased to be backing Mirova’s experienced and capable infrastructure team to deliver a diversified portfolio of core mid-market infrastructure in Continental Europe,” says Gillian De Candole, Investment Principal in Brunel’s Private Markets team (pictured left).
“Mirova has a strong reputation for generating attractive returns for investors via sustainable investment and strong ESG processes. This fund is a good fit with both our clients’ return expectations from infrastructure, but also their combined commitment to be responsible, long-term owners of sustainable investments.”
he adds: “The fund is shaping up nicely and is already over 60% invested, providing Brunel with good visibility and immediate exposure to a number of seed assets including a district heating network in Norway (powered from renewable energy resources), an ultra-fast broadband network in France, an Italian hospital concession and a number of transport and social infrastructure concessions in Spain. We look forward to an open and productive relationship with Mirova for many years to come.””
