Alain Rauscher, Chairman and CEO, declared:

"2024 was another successful year for Antin, marked by such major achievements as record financial results, the biggest fundraise in the infrastructure sector worldwide to close during the year and continued strong performance of our funds and operating companies.

Looking forward, we expect 2025 to be a transition year in a challenging market environment for private markets, but also a year of great opportunities. We remain confident that the infrastructure asset class has a bright future ahead, underpinned by supportive secular trends such as electrification, decarbonisation and the exponential growth of data. Antin is well positioned to remain a leader and a winner in its field, delivering superior returns for all its stakeholders."

ACTIVITY UPDATE

FUNDRAISING

  • Fundraising amounted to €1.1bn in 2024, entirely related to Flagship Fund V

  • Flagship Fund V held a successful final close on 17 December 2024 at €10.2bn, above the fund’s target of €10bn and ~56% above the size of its predecessor. It was the largest infrastructure fund to hold a final close in 2024 worldwide, with an upsizing that is best-in-class, positioning Antin’s Flagship strategy among the fastest-scaling large cap infrastructure strategies globally. The fund was raised in a challenging fundraising environment during which fund investors faced liquidity and allocation constraints. It gathered support from both returning investors, which contributed €5.8bn of commitments, and new relationships. Over 120 new investors joined the fund, further diversifying Antin’s growing investor base. In particular, commitments from North America increased by 5x while commitments from Asia increased by 2x relative to Flagship Fund IV, attesting to the internationalisation of Antin’s investor relations platform
