Ports America, a stevedore owned by Highstar Capital, beat our eight other competitors for a 50 year concession to improve and operate five berths at the California port, the US’ third busiest by container volume. The contract is the first of its kind for US marine terminals.
The Connecticut-based firm is raising its debut $1bn fund that will focus on core capital assets related to the transportation, industrial and energy sectors. Its founding partners previously focused on similar investments at Citigroup.
The US Secretary of Transportation said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that a 10 cent increase in the gasoline tax is ‘not going to fly anywhere in America’ due to the recession. He instead voiced support for tolling and public-private partnerships as a way to raise money.
The world’s largest private manager of infrastructure assets said it will not buy further shares in its specialist listed funds. Macquarie shares hit a 10-year low amid speculation that the firm would have to raise capital amid mounting losses from investments in the funds.
