Profile
InfraCo Africa seeks to alleviate poverty by mobilising private sector expertise and finance to develop high quality infrastructure projects in sub-Saharan Africa.InfraCo Africa was established in 2004. Since then we have successfully developed 11 projects through to Financial Close, of which we have fully exited three. InfraCo Africa currently has twelve projects under development, five projects under construction and four operational assets. We are also exploring a range of new opportunities across sub-Saharan Africa.
As a publicly funded company, we endeavour to recover our costs and recycle our funding. We therefore balance cost and risk across the projects that we are developing. We will not subsidise returns for the private sector or other investors in the project.
We seek to exit a project once sufficient investment has been mobilised or an alternative source of financing has been secured: this may mean topping up or retaining early-stage risk capital through construction and during initial operations. To date we have fully exited three projects, the costs we’ve recovered are being reinvested into new projects in sub-Saharan Africa.
