About Us
We have been building critical, core infrastructure focused on essential services in growth markets for over 20 years. Today, we are one of the largest and longest-standing sustainable infrastructure investors globally.
We are growth markets specialists because this is where we see the best risk adjusted returns. We have an industrialist mindset that brings deep operational expertise to every investment, and we focus on sustainability with the aim of mitigating risk, creating value and future-proofing our assets.
We do it at scale and draw on a legacy of over 70 years. Since inception, we have raised circa US$26 billion.
In October 2024, Actis joined forces with General Atlantic, a leading global growth investor, creating a diversified, global investment platform with approximately US$108 billion in combined assets under management. Actis operates as General Atlantic’s sustainable infrastructure business. This strategic combination further enhances Actis’ focus as a leader in global sustainable infrastructure.
