The growing pressure of the climate emergency is accelerating the financing needs of players in the energy transition and climate adaptation. As technologies diversify, this need arises at increasingly early stages of development. Faced with the inevitable decline in subsidies for the RE market, investors must position themselves strategically to be able to deal with the growing merchant risk.
Anticipating all of these challenges, we have strengthened our teams around our INFRABRIDGE short-term senior debt investment strategy.
Set up four years ago, this range of funds has been structured to enable us to quickly take on all market risks and to provide financial solutions adapted to the sector’s problems, with the required speed and agility.
Buoyed by the success of the first two vintages of INFRABRIDGE I and II, INFRABRIDGE III is about to exceed its size objectives thanks to a large pipeline of already secured projects.
The Debt Division is headed by a seasoned team led by Mathilde Ketoff. After 12 years at BNP Paribas, Mathilde joined us in 2019 as Investment Director before taking over the management of the Debt Division in 2021. Since her arrival, she has led the execution of around 30 transactions in Europe, supporting RE, green mobility and storage project owners.
A successful track-record that drives the expansion of our range of debt products, notably with the INFRAMEZZ fund and the AFRIGREEN fund whose launch, planned for this summer, will support the energy transition on the African continent.
