I Squared Capital signs definitive agreements establishing $1.2 billion DFC Climate Fund

I Squared Capital has successfully closed its first dedicated Climate Fund, raising $1.2 billion for climate-related infrastructure projects. The fund includes a $300 million commitment from the U.S.

MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–I Squared Capital, a leading independent global infrastructure investment manager, is pleased to announce that it has closed its first dedicated Climate Fund set up in conjunction with U.S. International Finance Development Corporation (DFC). DFC will commit $300 million alongside commitments from funds led by I Squared Capital of $900 million to invest in climate related infrastructure projects.

“The opportunity to invest alongside DFC underscores the importance of public private partnerships as vehicles to support sustainable infrastructure in the markets that need it most. It also mitigates regulatory and political risk and enables investments in infrastructure-related sectors at attractive risk adjusted returns in high growth emerging economies,” said Sadek Wahba, Chairman of I Squared Capital.

A leader in infrastructure investments in emerging economies, over the past decade, I Squared Capital funds have committed $7.9 billion to infrastructure investments in emerging markets across a diverse group of sectors including energy, utilities, transportation, social infrastructure, digital infrastructure, and environmental infrastructure.
