Pensions - Articles - NAPF response to National Infrastructure Plan for 2013


Responding to the Government’s National Infrastructure Plan 2013, Joanne Segars, Chief Executive, NAPF

 Responding to the Government’s National Infrastructure Plan 2013, Joanne Segars, Chief Executive, NAPF, said:
  
 “Today’s announcement on the new National Infrastructure Plan is welcome. The current review of European rules to incentivise investment in a wider range of assets should make it easier for institutional investors to invest in infrastructure as an asset class, something that the NAPF has strongly advocated for some time.
  
 “It is important, however, that this is balanced by a strong pipeline of assets that are suitable investment vehicles for pension funds, including assets with strong inflation-linkage to help pension funds match their liabilities.
  
 “The Pension Infrastructure Platform (PIP) is working towards a first close with its founding investors and there has been a significant level of interest from other pension funds.”
