McKinsey River Capital Management Infrastructure

Building the Infrastructure of Tomorrow

McKinsey River Capital Management Infrastructure identifies high-quality infrastructure companies through a thematic investment approach grounded in the evolving needs of society.

We unleash potential in infrastructure businesses through an industrial and operational ownership approach.

McKinsey River Capital Management Infrastructure’s three strategies target opportunities across distinct and complementary stages of company development and themes within the digital, energy and environmental, transport and logistics, and social infrastructure sectors. Today, the opportunity set is primarily driven by global, long-term trends such as the transition to a decarbonized and circular economy and the digitalization of society.

 
Value-Add Infrastructure

Invests in infrastructure companies that provide essential services to society, have a stable or growing underlying demand, predictable cash flows, and an asset based, contracted and well-protected business model.

 

A longer-hold strategy with a focus on downside protection and applying MRC’s active ownership playbook to core infrastructure companies.

 

Provides industrial, technological and operational expertise to scale businesses and support the transition to a decarbonised and climate-resilient future.
