Icon Infrastructure, which seeks a $1.8bn (€1.6bn) fundraise for its latest fund, has received $75m each from the New Mexico State Investment Council and the Ohio Police & Fire Pension Fund, according to the investors.
The new fund focus on privately-held investments in infrastructure assets in Europe and North America.
New Mexico, which disclosed Partners V’s fundraising amount, told Âé¶¹Ó³» Real Assets that the fund’s focus on Europe will give the $26bn sovereign wealth fund’s infrastructure portfolio some geographical diversification.
Partners V will be looking for deals that can produce low double-digit net internal rate of returns.
The fund, which aims to make equity commitments averaging €200m in companies, hopes to be a majority or full control investor in middle-market core, core-plus and value-add deals.
