Future Group partners with Aberdeen to invest in global sustainable infrastructure

Australian superannuation and financial services firm Future Group has partnered with Aberdeen Investments to deploy capital into global sustainable infrastructure projects.

As part of the partnership, Future Group will also allocate capital to Aberdeen’s Global Sustainable Infrastructure strategy.

The partnership will focus on investing in essential infrastructure aligned with sustainability priorities, including supporting the global energy transition through low-carbon infrastructure, expanding social and affordable assets such as housing and healthcare, and investing in cleaner transport projects.

Aberdeen’s Global Sustainable Infrastructure strategy focuses on greenfield concession and public-private partnership style investments, targeting infrastructure projects that support public services, enhance social mobility and advance decarbonisation. It aims to deliver long-term predictable returns while generating positive environmental and social outcomes.

David Allen, deputy chief investment officer – private markets at Future Group, said: “Creating a sustainable and equitable world is central to our mission of building a future worth retiring into.

“Aberdeen’s deep expertise and strong track record in real assets and concession infrastructure align closely with our investment philosophy and sustainability objectives. We look forward to working together to deliver long-term value for both our members and society.”
