The 25-year fund will invest in sustainable and climate resilient assets in accordance with Meridiam’s environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) policy, with the aim of benefitting local communities.

The fund received strong support from US pension funds and insurance companies who confirmed their interest in a developing infrastructure asset class in response to the country’s critical need and represent two thirds of the commitments to the fund.

Meridiam has closed 13 projects in the Americas since 2009, including a number of pioneering projects:

Meridiam is also working on a pioneering investment in congestion relief managed lanes projects that include North Tarrant Expressway and LBJ in Texas as well as the recently awarded I-66 in Virginia. Meridiam now manages a total of USD 6.8 billion.

“The P3 market is growing and is increasingly diversified, P3s are being applied to new sectors and are carried out not only at a state level but also at city level.
Meridiam’s team has developed an attractive pipeline of opportunities and will continue to execute its strategy of investing into greenfield P3 projects.” said Jane Garvey, Chairman, Meridiam North America.

“North American institutional investors showed strong appetite for the type of stable, long-term investment returns that we believe infrastructure can deliver while helping local communities develop” stated Thierry Déau, Founder and CEO of Meridiam.
