Cantor Fitzgerald
US financial services group Cantor Fitzgerald has filed a request to launch an infrastructure fund to generate “attractive, risk-adjusted returns” with a focus on current income.

The fund, which is called the Cantor Fitzgerald Sustainable Infrastructure Fund, will pursue its objective by investing in a blend of private institutional infrastructure investment funds and public infrastructure securities. Working with Capital Innovations as sub-advisor, the fund intends to focus on three infrastructure megatrends: (i) digital transformation, (ii) decarbonization, and (iii) enhancement of aging infrastructure assets. Cantor Fitzgerald expects to launch the fund in the second quarter of 2022.

“The need for investment in infrastructure in the US and around the world is extraordinary and we believe our platform is well positioned to provide investors with the opportunity to invest in sustainable investment strategies,” Jay Frank, president of Cantor Fitzgerald Capital and chief operating officer of Cantor Fitzgerald Investment Management, said.

Capital Innovations has run infrastructure equity and debt investments since 2007.
