While the infrastructure fund manager has ruled out a second PINAI fund, it is exploring other opportunities in the country in separate discussions with the fund’s LPs.

A Cbus-First State Super partnership will take on a MIRA-Sunsuper bid for the state’s land title business.

The proposed divestment package – an attempt to satisfy FIRB and ACCC regulatory requirements – is not seen as including APA’s best assets.

The global asset manager makes four appointments including former Hastings executive Heiko Schupp, who will lead the firm’s new infrastructure strategy.

The country’s four AP funds are one step closer to gaining more flexibility when investing in private markets.

The firm has a pipeline of over 2GW of Taiwanese offshore wind projects and is also active in other Asian offshore wind markets like Japan and Korea.

The mid-market fund manager has already committed around $200m from its sophomore vehicle.

But CIO Angela Miller-May stressed it wasn’t the clincher in its recent decision to allocate $50m with IFM Investors and Ullico Investment Advisors.

A US-based fund of funds has picked up 25% of the €547m vehicle, which closed in 2008.

The Japanese insurer has emerged as an anchor investor in M&G’s European infrastructure debt fund as the UK asset manager looks to raise €286m from Asian LPs.
