The Richardson family office has invested alongside the Swedish-based investment organisation EQT in their global value-add sustainable infrastructure fund.
EQT is a purpose-driven global investment organization focused on active ownership strategies, with offices in 20 countries around the world and EUR 242 billion in assets under management.
With a Nordic heritage and a global mindset, EQT has a thirty-year track record of delivering consistent and attractive returns across multiple geographies, sectors and strategies.
Uniquely, EQT is the only large private markets firm in the world with investment strategies covering all phases of a business’ development, from start-up to maturity.
The Value-Add Sustainable Infrastructure fund takes a purpose-driven approach to make a positive impact and future-proof companies. It is focused on investments in infrastructure companies that provide essential services to society, have long-term stable or growing underlying demand, predictable cashflows and an asset based, contracted and well protected business model.
The investment by the Richardson family follows on from a recent investment with New York City based Leeds Equity Partners in the education and training sectors in North America, and adds to the active portfolio operating around the world.
