Infrastructure investor HRL Morrison & Co has announced plans to expand its presence in Asia by opening a Singapore office and relocating key staff.
“The opening of our Singapore office is a recognition of the increasing importance of this region as both a source and a destination for capital within the global infrastructure market," CEO Paul Newfield said.
Company CCO Nicole Walker, who leads client activities, has relocated from Sydney Australia to Singapore to help establish the regional base. "Our Asian-based team will cater to the accelerating demand for attractive infrastructure investments from our growing client base,” she said.
The infrastructure investment company currently has locations in Hong Kong and China.
Director of energy operations Jonty Palmer has also relocated from London to support the Asian renewable energy development platform.
Morrison & Co manages multiple client mandates and claims total managed funds of over $23 billion at the end of 2021. The company manages Infratil Ltd and the Utilities Trust of Australia, two of the world's first infrastructure funds.
In January, Kate Mingay was appointed as a non-executive director, in order to help the company expand its presence in the UK and Europe.
