The Energy & Infrastructure Group of Bird & Bird France unveils the fourth edition of its barometer on the activity of infrastructure funds in 2023.
Boris Martor, partner and head of Bird & Bird France Energy & Infrastructure Group comments: "The year 2023 demonstrated the resilience and adaptability of the French private equity market in the infrastructure sector despite economic challenges. The outlook for 2024 looks promising with expectations of stabilisation and continued growth in various strategic sectors. The return of "animal spirits" and the improvement of macroeconomic conditions should favour a significant recovery in fundraising and investments. To conclude, despite the environment being identified uncertain by 56% of the investment funds surveyed by Bird & Bird, over 43% of them expect their business to grow in 2024."
