PGGM, a leading cooperative pension fund service provider in the Netherlands, has marked a significant milestone with its infrastructure portfolio reaching €15 billion in assets under management (AUM). This achievement underscores PGGM's commitment to sustainable and long-term investment strategies in private infrastructure equity. With over a decade of experience in infrastructure investments, PGGM has built a diverse portfolio aimed at supporting essential sectors like transport, digital infrastructure, energy & utilities, and social projects.
PGGM's infrastructure team has been actively investing since 2008, focusing on sectors that provide critical infrastructure for modern societies. The fund's strategy involves direct investment and active asset management to ensure resilience in the face of changing environmental, social, and technological trends. This approach not only yields financial returns but also contributes to sustainable development goals and social responsibility.
PGGM Infrastructure's investment strategy is deeply intertwined with sustainable development goals. The fund engages actively with portfolio companies to encourage business model transitions that support climate change adaptation, energy transition, and social shifts. This commitment to sustainability is reflected in PGGM's participation in the GRESB Infrastructure benchmark, promoting transparency and accountability in non-financial reporting.
The Dutch pension fund sector has seen significant growth over the past decade, with assets nearly doubling. While a substantial portion of investments is made internationally, Dutch pension funds prioritize investments in real estate, infrastructure, and fixed-income securities domestically. PGGM's commitment to infrastructure investments aligns with this trend, emphasizing strategic allocations that support both national and international infrastructure projects.
PGGM's infrastructure investments are part of a broader strategy to manage risk and optimize returns. By focusing on illiquid assets like infrastructure, pension funds can benefit from the illiquidity premium, potentially offering higher returns compared to traditional equities. This approach also involves diversifying the portfolio to mitigate risks associated with market volatility.
The expansion of PGGM's infrastructure portfolio reflects the sector's growing importance in the Dutch pension fund landscape. By integrating sustainable practices and long-term vision, PGGM not only ensures financial resilience but also contributes to societal goals. As the pension fund industry continues to evolve, investments in infrastructure are likely to remain a cornerstone of their strategies.
