In this episode of IPE’s Leaders in Investment, Marija Simpraga and Raymond Wright, Co-Heads of Real Assets at People’s Partnership discuss how they are building their fund’s £4bn real assets investment portfolio from the ground up, focusing on the manager selection process for their infrastructure mandate; their goal of becoming a reliable partner of choice for co-investment opportunities and considering their members’ young average age as a key reason to lean into the growth aspect of real assets.

This episode of Leaders in Investment is sponsored by UBS.
