Partners Group, a Swiss private markets specialist, has experienced a significant increase of 70% in infrastructure secondary transactions, investing $1.2 billion on behalf of its clients over the past year. This growth highlights the firm's dedication to a thematic investment strategy, focusing on key trends such as digitization, decarbonization, and "new living."

The firm's global infrastructure business now manages $26 billion in assets, contributing to a total of $149.2 billion in assets under management as of June. During the reported period, the Infrastructure Partnerships team successfully completed 13 transactions, including notable acquisitions like a data center in Canada and a portfolio of 10 investments through various partnership structures.

The infrastructure secondaries market is gaining popularity due to the maturation of this asset class. Limited Partners are increasingly utilizing the secondary market for liquidity and portfolio rebalancing as they shift from building infrastructure allocations to managing their portfolios.
