Its activities include the development of HICL’s strategy to implement the Board’s Investment Policy, namely the identification of suitable markets for investment opportunities that are in line with HICL’s risk appetite and provide attractive risk-adjusted returns. The Investment Manager’s Investment Committee approves decisions on investments and divestments. Fund management also undertakes capital raising, investor relations and the preparation of key external communications, including HICL’s website. The team liaises with existing investors and related parties (e.g. analysts and other key external stakeholders).

Business Development is the building of relationships to provide industry insight and market knowledge. The team brings to bear its international coverage and market expertise to identify and deliver accretive investment opportunities.

The team will source input from third-party advisers where appropriate. Asset management and portfolio management Working closely together, InfraRed’s Asset Management and Portfolio Management teams are key to HICL’s investment proposition by preserving and, where possible, enhancing value for stakeholders and shareholders. Asset Management is focused on the successful management and operational performance of the investments at project level with a heavy focus on client engagement. Activities include: management oversight of each investment; where the project involves the construction of new facilities, regular monitoring of progress to ensure successful delivery; pro-actively building and maintaining closer, open stakeholder relationships at project company level; facilitating early resolution of operational issues as they arise, including contractual disputes; and enhancing ESG initiatives in each project company, where appropriate. Portfolio Management is concerned with the financial management of the HICL group and financial performance of the portfolio. Working closely with the Asset Managers, the team seeks to: monitor the financial performance of each investment against targets and forecasts; consider the portfolio composition and mix within risk appetite and desired returns; manage the investment cashflows; manage the processes and analysis which underpin the semi-annual valuation of the portfolio; ensure good financial management including forex hedging, efficient cash management and treasury processes.
