Market Review 2026
Infrastructure finance markets in 2026 are competitive.
Major lenders across the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia compete actively for commercially viable infrastructure schemes; in southern Africa, multilateral and development finance institutions extend their pipelines as governments accelerate Public Private Partnership procurement.
The firm’s view: structure determines value. Projects that present credible structure, defensible commercial assumptions and clear risk allocation attract the most competitive terms.
