Global Infrastructure Partners has raised more than $2.1 billion for its initial emerging markets fund.

GIP EM’s limited partners include public and private pension plans, sovereign wealth funds, insurance companies, financial institutions, asset managers, endowments, and family offices across North America, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

The fund has already deployed over $1 billion across a diversified portfolio of assets.

“We are extremely gratified by the confidence that EM Fund investors have placed in us,” said James Amine, GIP partner and head of Emerging Markets in a statement. “The infrastructure opportunity in emerging markets countries is significant. While global economic growth may be decelerating, GIP believes that conditions in the target countries for GIP EM remain constructive and present an attractive investing environment.”
