Corsair Infrastructure Partners Announces Long Term Investments by HarbourVest Partners
Corsair Infrastructure Partners (“CIP”), the global infrastructure investment business of Corsair Capital (“Corsair”), today announced that HarbourVest Partners (“HarbourVest”), a leading institutional investor active across multiple asset classes and geographies, has invested in three new CIP-managed funds established to deploy capital in the aviation, port, and road sectors.
Earlier this year, CIP’s new funds closed on the acquisitions of shareholdings in three platform companies – the airport developer Vantage Airport Group, the Australian stevedore DP World Australia, and the Spanish toll-road operator Itínere Infraestructuras – from various selling shareholders including Gateway Infrastructure Investments, a legacy CIP-managed vehicle. The investments from HarbourVest come from a long-term pool of institutional capital dedicated to supporting infrastructure equity sponsors like CIP, and will play an important role in the execution of CIP’s growth strategies for all three platforms.
Hari R. Rajan, Managing Director of Corsair and Head of CIP said, “We are excited to welcome HarbourVest as a leading investor in our new funds. HarbourVest has a strong reputation and demonstrated track record working with general partners in the infrastructure space, and we look forward to a long and productive relationship.”
Kevin Warn-Schindel, Managing Director at HarbourVest said, “We are excited to partner with Corsair on this investment as we believe the portfolio of high-quality infrastructure assets managed by Corsair’s team of seasoned investment professionals represents an attractive investment for HarbourVest’s infrastructure strategy. We look forward to working with Corsair and the management teams to continue growing each of the platform investments over a long-term horizon.”
