North Haven Infrastructure Partners III includes some of the world’s largest and most sophisticated institutional infrastructure investors, including public and private pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and insurance companies.
“We are grateful for the trust and support from both our long-standing partners as well as new investors,” said Markus Hottenrott, Chief Investment Officer for Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners. “We are confident that our active approach to value creation, together with the reach of the Morgan Stanley platform, will continue to deliver results for our clients.”
