2 The Preqin Quarterly Update: Infrastructure, 216 Download the data pack at: Foreword - Tom Carr, Preqin 216 saw the fi nal close of the largest ever unlisted infrastructure fund: Brookfi eld Infrastructure Fund III secured $14bn in just eight months of fundraising. This alone pushed the aggregate capital raised in the quarter ($23bn) to a level last seen in Q4 213, when $24bn was raised. Even with this mega fund excluded, there would still have been $2.2bn more capital secured than in the previous quarter, indicating that demand for the asset class continues to be strong. Part of this demand is derived from the confidence in infrastructure to continue to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns. While the S&P 5 TR and PrEQIn All Private Equity Index experienced greater gains (7% and 3% respectively) in the three months from September 215, the PrEQIn Infrastructure Index reveals that the asset class had lower volatility and continues to outperform both indices over the longer term. The number and estimated aggregate deal value of infrastructure transactions fell for a second consecutive quarter, from 313 to 28 deals and $154.6bn to $18.4bn in estimated value. This represents the smallest number of completed deals since 212 and the lowest estimated aggregate deal value since 215. This recent dip suggests that managers are struggling to put capital to work in the current market environment. Valuations have been pushed up in recent years as low interest rates and sizeable amounts of dry powder have led to signifi cant competition for attractive assets. Institutional investors in infrastructure maintain a strong preference for domestic investment opportunities, including 58% of Europe-based investors that will seek Europe-focused funds in the coming year. The proportion of investors planning to commit $5mn or more to unlisted infrastructure funds in the next 12 months has fallen from 1% in 215 to 3% in 216. With Brexit uncertainty prevailing, investment opportunities in Europe may be viewed with caution: 18% of North America-based investors are targeting infrastructure investments in Europe in 216, compared with in.

3 Download the data pack at: The Preqin Quarterly Update: Infrastructure, 216 Meeting COP21 Challenges with an Innovative Approach - Matthieu Poisson, CEO, Amundi Transition Energétique Matthieu Poisson, Amundi Transition Energétique s CEO, introduces this unique joint venture between Electricité de France and Amundi. Why has Amundi Transition Energétique been set up? There is now a robust political momentum behind the need for an accelerated energy transition in France, in the broader context of the COP21 Paris Agreement. More specifi cally, a law was passed in August 215 with a very large scope notably in terms of targets for reducing energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and diversifying energy supply sources. Such an effort will obviously imply a signifi cantly more ambitious tariff and subsidy program by the French state than previously contemplated. As an example, the annual German renewable tariff budget is over fi ve times bigger than in France. The new law extended its reach far beyond tariffs with, for example, a new obligation for institutional investors to report on an annual basis on their exposure to climate change risk, their carbon footprint and their contribution towards achieving the objectives of the law. EDF is the leading European renewable energy producer and as such has an obvious central role to play in any change to the energy mix. EDF has set itself the target to almost double its renewable capacity by 23. In this perspective, the group has looked for innovative fi nancing models to fi nance its growth, which paved the way for the creation of Amundi Transition Energétique (ATE), an asset management company owned 4/6 by EDF and Amundi. What roles do EDF and Amundi have? EDF supplies two areas of know-how: project sourcing and operational management and the maintenance of assets, both on a scale which would be hard to replicate for any traditional asset management company. As an illustration of this point, an average fund investing in wind farms might reach a size which is approximately one tenth of what EDF has under management. This scale advantage provides EDF with a unique insight into industrial risk over a very broad array of equipment, which in turn proves invaluable for example when analyzing assets for potential acquisition. The role of Amundi is to select assets and design the fi nancial structure of the project with a dedicated team. One of the key objectives of the joint venture is to design robust fi nancial structures that enable a high degree of standardization from one deal to another in order to address both very large and smaller projects on the same basis. This allows EDF to respond to all market opportunities, deploying more resources than before and on a timely basis, and it also provides ATE with a high degree of diversifi cation. What does this partnership involve? This is the fi rst time that an industrial company and a fi nancing company have come together. The creation of this partnership involves sourcing agreements with the subsidiaries of EDF present in the various renewables businesses enjoying an attractive PPP/Tariff context. Obviously ATE has no obligation to accept all the deals presented by EDF (which would in any case far exceed its capacity) and can source projects outside EDF. The various privileged sourcing agreements are focused on identifying projects available outside EDF and those that can be secured jointly. As far as the potential future disposal of EDF s own existing assets, both partners have agreed that it was preferable to keep them out of the scope of the agreement. More generally, the partnership has set up a number of safeguards to protect investors from potential confl icts of interest. Apart from the obvious (i.e. no EDF representative within the company and/or at its investment committee), the relative size of the projected fi rst fund of ATE implies that its annual investment should represent less than a quarter of what EDF currently invests annually in the same sectors, thus ensuring an ability to be selective. Additionally, EDF will retain a degree of exposure to the underlying assets should it be through O&M, minority ownership or its share in the carried interest of the fund. On a more strategic basis, given the amount of renewable investments of EDF that need to be fi nanced, there is a very strong incentive for both sponsors to make the fi rst fund launched by ATE a success, as the key strategic objective is to repeat capital raisings in the future. How do you compare the types of funds that ATE might launch with other infrastructure funds? The main distinctive feature of ATE is its access to a very large and robust existing pipeline of opportunities, but also its structural ongoing relationship with EDF s development teams, which can amount to several hundred people in the heating network PPPs for example. This privileged access provides ATE with a unique visibility over capital deployment as it benefi ts from the input of sourcing teams that far exceed any other infrastructure funds in size, access and experience. Overall, our targeted returns will be in line with the market, but we will try to reduce their volatility by opting for a pure buy-and-hold strategy. This differs from a more aggressive private equity style approach to infrastructure investing, which relies both on the ability to substantially increase the asset s performance and favourable market conditions upon exit.

We also want to concentrate on late-stage investing in order to limit our exposure to development risk. Finally, we are also confi dent enough in our sourcing capacity to limit our investment scope to at least 75% Eurozone and 51% France. Overall, we feel that there is a strong appetite in the market to trade liquidity for solid cash-yield returns, and therefore invest in funds that match in duration the entire economic life of assets i.e. 2 years plus.

The closure of Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III on $14bn accounts for approximately 61% of aggregate capital raised in, and sets the record as the largest unlisted infrastructure fund ever closed. The fund targets large-scale greenfield and brownfield infrastructure assets, specifically in energy, utilities and transportation sectors. Since the start of 215, 19 unlisted infrastructure funds have reached a final close, securing a combined $9.8bn in capital. Unsurprisingly, North America- and Europe-focused funds collectively dominate the unlisted infrastructure market, representing 61% of the number and 75% of the aggregate capital raised by funds closed since 215 (Fig. 2). If the Brookfield fund had not reached a final close, the aggregate capital raised by North America-focused funds would have been less than the aggregate capital secured by Europe focused funds ($28.9bn).

6 The Preqin Quarterly Update: Infrastructure, 216 Download the data pack at: Funds in Market As of the start of Q4 216, there are a record 186 unlisted infrastructure funds in market, seeking $113bn in aggregate capital (Fig. 1), with $43bn of that total already raised through interim closes. Although the amount of aggregate capital sought is slightly down from the start of the year, the number of funds on the road has increased from 179 funds to 186, illustrating the growing competition for capital among infrastructure fi rms. The largest number of unlisted infrastructure funds in market focus on opportunities in Europe, with 7 funds seeking $29.5bn in capital (Fig. 2). However, North America-focused funds are seeking a larger amount of capital ($51.6bn) than any other region. When excluding Global Infrastructure Partners III, the largest fund in market at present, this fi gure falls to $39.1bn, still exceeding that of any other region. Global Infrastructure Partners III will invest in brownfi eld infrastructure projects in a range of sectors including energy, transportation, utilities and water. Competition is refl ected in the length of time infrastructure fi rms are having to spend raising capital: the majority (56%) of funds in market have been on the road for over a year, including 16% that have been fundraising for more than three years (Fig. 3). The average time spent on the road by funds currently in market stands at 18 months.

8 The Preqin Quarterly Update: Infrastructure, 216 Download the data pack at: Institutional Investors in Infrastructure Institutional investors in infrastructure will predominantly target domestic investments over the next 12 months, with the exception of Asia-based investors, which have an equal preference for global investments. Global-focused investments make up the second largest proportion (35%) of planned investments for both North America- and Europe-based investors (Fig. 1). The majority of infrastructure investors worldwide prefer to invest in the asset class via unlisted funds (Fig. 2). Listed funds are the least preferred route to market, with between 7% and 8% of investors in each of the three regions targeting listed infrastructure. Direct infrastructure investment is a greater focus for Asia-based investors than for those based in Europe and North America (34% vs. 29% and 17% respectively). There has been a slight decrease in the number of investors planning to allocate more than $5mn to unlisted infrastructure funds compared with the same time last year, from 1% of investors in 215 to 3% in 216 (Fig. 3). The majority of active institutions will continue to invest less than $1mn in the year ahead. Three percent of investors plan to allocate to 1 funds or more in the next 12 months, compared with no investors in 215; however, there has also been growth in the proportion of investors that plan to commit to just one unlisted fund, up from 12% in 215 to 18% in 216 (Fig. 4). Fifty-two percent of investors plan to commit to two or three unlisted funds over the next 12 months, accounting for the largest proportion of fund searches in 216.

Despite this, the PrEQIn Infrastructure Index, which currently stands at points, has outperformed both the PrEQIn All Private Equity Index since its inception in 27 and the S&P 5 TR Index over the longer term (Fig. 3). Mega funds represent a growing proportion of dry powder, which increased from 37% in December 215 to 46% at the end of 216 (Fig. 4).
