Munich Re's asset manager MEAG is doubling down on infrastructure debt.

Munich Re's asset manager MEAG is doubling down on infrastructure debt. The firm plans to grow its portfolio from €10 billion to €20 billion over the next five to six years, targeting new markets including Canada while exploring smaller financing opportunities. MEAG, managing €368 billion in total assets, currently allocates 15% to alternative investments like infrastructure debt. The company typically finances projects ranging from €100 million to €400 million but is now pursuing smaller deals in renewable energy and transportation. By pooling smaller transactions, MEAG expects to capture higher margins with less competition. The firm aims for returns approximately 100 to 200 basis points above liquid investments.
