Our mission is to be an infrastructure partner of choice by making and managing investments which have historically shown to deliver consistently attractive results to clients through the passion of our people, depth or our experience and strength of our global relationships.
We specialise by sector and seek out the right deals. We have a solid track record across market cycles using a disciplined investment process, focused on delivering long-term value and capital preservation within sustainable robust capital structures.[1] We have one objective, to deliver predictable outcomes for our clients.
1As at 31 December 2017. 2 The number of direct investments reflects the number of acquisitions sourced and currently managed by QIC.
We believe client outcomes drive everything. Our approach is underpinned by the following investment philosophy and beliefs:
We believe in the right deal, not the hot deal, we invest with a long-term mindset and are not driven by short term temptations. This is how we produce outcomes.
We are active at every stage of the investment process. Our Active-Core strategy focused on seeking attractive infrastructure assets, and through positions of strong influence or majority control, optimise them for the investor and the customer. We buy businesses – not assets.
We have a sector-centric approach in the core infrastructure sectors of transport, energy and utilities, and PPP/social. By deeply understanding sectors on a global basis we take a more informed view of risk, return and pricing for every asset that we acquire, manage and prepare to sell.
We focus on infrastructure projects in OECD countries exhibiting predictable cash flows, sustainable competitive advantages and operating in well-defined regulatory environments.
In a highly-contested market, paying fair value for assets is essential for delivering optimal client outcomes. We are selective in our deal origination and leverage our global networks of co-investors (including sovereign wealth funds and pension plans), intermediaries and strategic partners.
We believe environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) factors will have an increasingly material impact on the long-term returns of investment portfolios. We are committed to delivering strong, long-term investment performance to our clients and considering ESG factors is part of our investment decision-making process. In 2017, we achieved an A+ rating from the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI). You can access the full report here.
Clients can access our direct infrastructure capability through segregated mandates as well as pooled products.
Our pooled products target attractive risk-adjusted returns through equity and equity-related investments in infrastructure assets and related companies, primarily located in developed OECD counties.
