Amber Infrastructure

Amber Infrastructure Group acts as the investment adviser to International Public Partnerships Limited (INPP), a FTSE 250 listed infrastructure investment company. Amber provides origination, due diligence, asset management, and portfolio management services to INPP under an investment advisory agreement. The arrangement means Amber manages the INPP portfolio but does not own it directly, with INPP governed by an independent board of directors who oversee fees and strategy (per International Public Partnerships Limited, 2023).

Amber Infrastructure focuses on public-private partnerships covering social accommodation (schools, hospitals, courthouses), transportation infrastructure, energy transmission and renewable generation, and digital infrastructure such as fibre networks. The portfolio historically leans toward availability-based assets where revenue is linked to asset availability rather than volume or market risk. As of 2023, more than 130 individual projects fell within the INPP portfolio across the UK, Europe, Australia, and North America (per International Public Partnerships Limited, 2023).

Amber sources infrastructure investments through direct origination from its team in London, Munich, Milan, Sydney, and New York, often participating in government tender processes for public-private partnership projects. The firm also has an origination arrangement with Amber-advised funds, including a pre-emption right to invest in new projects sourced by the manager. Its long-standing presence in UK PFI/PPP procurement since the early 2000s gives it established relationships with public-sector procurers across multiple jurisdictions.

No. In addition to INPP, Amber Infrastructure also serves as investment adviser to several UK local government pension scheme (LGPS) pooled infrastructure mandates. The firm manages separately managed accounts and direct institutional mandates alongside its listed fund activities. Amber also has a track record in renewable energy funds and has managed dedicated energy efficiency investment programmes in the UK, including the National Energy Efficiency Fund.

Amber Infrastructure's operational footprint spans the UK, Continental Europe (notably Germany and Italy), Australia, and North America. The INPP portfolio is diversified across these regions, with the UK historically representing the largest single-country exposure given the firm's origins in the UK Private Finance Initiative. Its Australian office in Sydney supports investments in public-private partnership projects comparable to the UK PFI model, while its European presence targets regulated and availability-based infrastructure in EU member states.
