A comprehensive look at the emergence of infrastructure
finance

Just as infrastructure development acts as a catalyst for
economic growth, it is also changing the landscape for potential
investors and the burgeoning field of infrastructure finance.
Infrastructure systems for transportation, utilities, and public
works are essential for economic growth and have quickly developed
into an emerging alternative asset class.

Infrastructure Finance examines how the activities
associated with updating and creating efficient transportation and
communications, reliable and affordable energy, clean water, and
other essential systems, have become a profitable financial
endeavor. Recently, providing, operating, and maintaining
infrastructure has advanced as a recognized and important
investment sector that reaches beyond earlier business models.
Infrastructure Finance puts this field in perspective
and details what you need to know to succeed within it.
