TIIC

TIIC Group backed by Edmond de Rothschild, is a pan-European infrastructure firm advising on mid-market infrastructure projects across Europe in both the transportation and social sectors. It was established in 2008 by the 3 founding partners of TIIC Group, Jaime d’Almeida, Manuel Cary and Francisco Mendes, with strategic support from the Edmond de Rothschild Group and Brisa.

The aim of TIIC Group is to bring an operational approach to infrastructure investments in Europe, drawing upon the extensive management and financial skills of its team members. These skills have been developed over many years at some of Europe’s leading infrastructure operators and project financing firms which, when combined with the very specific infrastructure expertise of both the Edmond de Rothschild Group and Brisa, makes for a powerful and differentiated investment platform.

TIIC Group operates from two offices in Lisbon and Paris, providing its team with access to relevant investment opportunities across key target markets in Europe as well as to leading industrial contractors, operators, advisors and financiers in the infrastructure industry.

TIIC Group successfully raised a First Fund with €140m of commitments targeting transportation investments across Europe. The portfolio of the First Fund comprises 6 assets located in Portugal, Spain, France and Poland. They represent a carefully balanced mix of greenfield and early stage brownfield projects in roads and car parks. TIIC Group has played an active role in the sourcing and development of all investments and has made a significant contribution to value creation. TIIC Group believes that this is a high quality, operationally secure, cash yielding portfolio of assets which will be of strong interest to potential investors over the coming few years.

TIIC has launched a successor fund, TIIC 2, which will build upon TIIC Group’ differentiated approach to infrastructure in Europe. TIIC 2 will is targeting aggregate commitments from investors of €300m (€350m hard cap) to invest into both transportation and social infrastructure projects in Europe. TIIC 2 will also seek to invest, on a very selective basis, into greenfield social infrastructure projects in New Frontier Markets, within close proximity to the European Union. Given its powerful network of relationships across Europe and the operational skills of its team, TIIC Group will continue to target superior investment returns for TIIC 2’s portfolio of assets. These returns should be in line with the anticipated returns from the First Fund portfolio which is forecast to deliver a gross IRR of up to 14% and a multiple of approximately 2x on invested capital.

TIIC announced the first close of TIIC 2 on December 30th 2016, with aggregate commitments of €135m from a group of high quality and well-diversified limited partners. First close investors in TIIC 2 include the European Investment Bank and Edmond de Rothschild, both with significant commitments, as well as the TIIC team. TIIC 2 is also supported by a number of existing investors, together with several European insurance companies, pension funds and family offices. A second close is planned in the coming months and the final close will occur before the end of 2017. We have received significant interest from a number of
