Home to over one billion people, Africa is the most youthful continent on the planet with the fastest rate of population growth. Countries across the continent have suffered from chronic underinvestment in infrastructure however, requiring significant increases in private spending to meet international peer best practices and even more to meet Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets.
OECD asset owners collectively hold more than $55 trillion in AUM, with approximately 1% of that figure, or $550 billion, allocated to unlisted infrastructure assets. As an illustrative figure, less than one-quarter of a percent, or $127 billion, of total OECD asset owner assets would be needed to meet Africa’s infrastructure needs and SDG targets for energy, water, and sanitation according to GI Hub data.
