Investcorp Corsair Infrastructure Partners

Investcorp Corsair Infrastructure Partners is the dedicated infrastructure investment unit of Investcorp, the global alternative asset manager based in Bahrain. Investcorp acquired Corsair Capital's infrastructure investment business in 2017. The team operates with its own investment process and committee while utilizing Investcorp's institutional infrastructure and capital-raising network.

The firm targets core and core-plus infrastructure assets, primarily in transportation—such as airport and port concessions—alongside regulated utilities and energy midstream assets. The strategy favors assets with contracted or regulated cash flows and high barriers to entry, located in OECD jurisdictions with mature legal and regulatory systems.

Deal flow is generated through a combination of the team's longstanding relationships with infrastructure vendors, governments, and corporate carve-out transactions, supplemented by Investcorp's global institutional relationships. The operating-partner model embedded in the team also surfaces proprietary sourcing through direct industry connections to transport and utility operators.

Yes. The firm frequently structures deals with co-investment tranches for its limited partners and select external institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds and public pension plans. This allows the fund to scale its deployment on larger transactions while keeping single-asset concentration within prudent limits.

The holding period is typically longer than traditional private equity, often exceeding ten years, reflecting the long-dated nature of concession agreements and the multi-decade capital expenditure cycles of infrastructure assets. The structure under Investcorp permits extended holds without the forced-sale pressure of a finite-life fund that has reached its term limit.
