European Diversified Infrastructure Fund IV (EDIF IV)

European Diversified Infrastructure Fund IV (EDIF IV) is the fourth flagship infrastructure fund in the EDIF series managed by Igneo Infrastructure Partners, the dedicated infrastructure investment platform of First Sentier Investors. Targeting a first close in 2026, EDIF IV aims to build upon the strong track record established by EDIF III, which reached its €5 billion hard cap and mobilized an additional €2.1 billion in co-investment capital. Igneo Infrastructure Partners is one of Europe's longest-established dedicated infrastructure managers, with deep expertise in mid-market sustainable economic infrastructure across energy, transportation, and digital sectors.

EDIF IV focuses on mature, revenue-generating economic infrastructure assets across Europe, with emphasis on sustainable assets aligned with the energy transition and the modern digital economy. Target subsectors include energy distribution and transmission networks, transportation infrastructure including roads and ports, utility services, and telecommunications infrastructure such as fiber and telecom towers. The fund pursues a mid-market strategy targeting assets and platforms where Igneo's operational expertise and sustainability frameworks can generate measurable performance improvements and long-term value creation for institutional limited partners.

The EDIF series has a two-decade investment history underpinning EDIF IV's fundraising. EDIF I (2009) was wound down delivering a 2.6x net equity multiple and returning €5 billion to investors across its lifecycle. EDIF III reached its €5 billion hard cap and deployed into high-quality European infrastructure businesses generating consistent distributions. The EDIF franchise has delivered strong outperformance across multiple economic cycles, positioning EDIF IV to benefit from both the established brand and accelerating institutional demand for European infrastructure at a time of significant energy transition investment.
