Abstract
Infrastructure, including tollroads, airports and utilities has taken on increased importance for institutional investors in recent years. This paper assesses the increasing significance of infrastructure funds in Australia and identifies the importance of the motivating factors and risk factors for infrastructure fund managers. The ongoing future development of the infrastructure sector in the context of the current global credit crisis is also identified and discussed.
