Schroders Greencoat is a specialist investment manager dedicated to renewable infrastructure, with over £8.5 billion under management. We aim to provide strong risk-adjusted returns for our investors, while also delivering positive environmental outcomes. Founded in 2009, Schroders Greencoat has built a reputation for unwavering delivery of our investment propositions, as well as for innovation – our offerings have become the model for an entire industry sector. Our investments span the globe, with local expertise in the Europe, the UK and the US, and are managed across a range of publicly listed vehicles*, private market pooled funds, co-investment vehicles and Separate Managed Accounts. Renewable infrastructure is a multi-trillion dollar global sector that will grow by more than $100 billion a year over the next decade. Utilities, energy companies and infrastructure developers will build out the majority of this transition, but the scale of capital involved will require significant private financing. There exists a very large and growing pool of capital which is keen to own and operate these assets, but lacks the inhouse technical skills and sector expertise to manage the investments independently. Our purpose is to bridge this gap, by acting as a solution provider for investors, and providing the partnership, financial, technical and operational expertise to deliver secure incomes for our clients. Acquired by Schroders plc in 2022, Schroders Greencoat is the fourth pillar of the group's private markets investment business, Schroders Capital. Schroders Capital through Schroders Greencoat has the ambition to become a global leader in infrastructure and the alternative investment industry more broadly. * Schroders Greencoat is the investment manager for two listed vehicles, Greencoat UK Wind PLC and Greencoat Renewables PLC.
