Evergreen Platform*
CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Oct. 8,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading private markets
investment management firm Hamilton Lane (Nasdaq: HLNE) today
announced the launch of the two new evergreen funds, offering
expanded access to private market infrastructure investments to
accredited investors around the world.
The Hamilton Lane Global Private Infrastructure Fund
("HLGPI") is available to qualified investors, including
high-net-worth ("HNW") investors and their wealth advisors in EMEA,
Australia, Canada, Latin
America and Southeast
Asia.
The Hamilton Lane Private Infrastructure Fund ("HLPIF")
is a continuously offered closed-end investment vehicle registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment Company Act of
1940 ("40 Act") and is available to U.S. clients, including HNW
investors and their wealth advisors.
HLGPI and HLPIF are total return strategies, targeting both
capital appreciation and income, designed to provide exposure to an
institutional-quality, global portfolio of infrastructure assets
through a single investment. With a focus on identifying and
capturing strategic opportunities in the infrastructure space,
including direct co-investment and secondary investments, the Funds
aim to deliver attractive returns and downside protection, paired
with liquidity in the form of monthly or quarterly redemptions.
The Funds' diversified portfolios focus on core plus and value
add infrastructure assets that share the traditional
characteristics of infrastructure, including high barriers to entry
and durable cash flows through contracted revenue streams, as well
as the potential for inflation-hedging qualities, competitive total
returns with potential downside protection, income yield and
portfolio diversification. Both HLGPI and HLPIF seek to capitalize
on unique opportunities across the power, transportation, data and
telecommunications, environmental and energy sectors.
Brent Burnett, Head of
Infrastructure and Real Assets, commented, "We are thrilled to
announce the launch of HLGPI and HLPIF. Infrastructure is one of
the fastest-growing asset classes in the private markets,
underpinned by the fundamentally infrastructure-enabled themes of
energy transition and the continued rollout of AI which we believe
will continue to create investment opportunities for years to come.
Hamilton Lane is one of the largest investors in private
infrastructure globally on a discretionary and supervisory basis,
and the Funds aim to build on the success of our broader platform
by offering unique access and expertise across infrastructure
sectors, asset types and geographies to private wealth and
institutional investors around the world."
For more than 24 years, Hamilton Lane has been designing
infrastructure-focused separate account mandates (SMAs) aimed at
delivering attractive performance relative to benchmarks for
clients of all sizes around the world. These new vehicles are an
extension of Hamilton Lane's broader infrastructure platform, which
the firm has been building since 2000 and which includes closed-end
funds and SMAs totaling nearly $72
billion in assets under management and supervision as of
June 30, 2024.
Steve Brennan, Head of Private
Wealth Solutions, added, "Since the launch of our Evergreen
Platform in 2019, we have steadily expanded upon our commitment to
enable access for a broader set of investors to the private
markets. Today, with the additions of HLPIF and HLGPI, our
Evergreen Platform now includes five funds across multiple
strategies, serving hundreds of investors around the world and with
a net asset value of approximately $8.1
billion*."
