We are excited to announce that Macquarie Asset Management has been awarded Infrastructure Debt Manager of the Year by Alternative Credit Investor. https://macq.co/6004sO6ca Congratulations to all those involved and thank you to our clients for your continued support. The award presented was received in November 2024. The award is the opinion of Alternative Credit Investor and not of Macquarie Group (“Macquarie”). No such person creating the ranking is affiliated with Macquarie or is an investor in Macquarie-sponsored vehicles. The winners were assessed by an independent panel of judges and Alternative Credit Investor’s senior editorial team. The judges looked at the positive impact that firms/funds are having on the industry, market reach and quality of products. In the infrastructure debt category specifically, they also considered what delivers the best outcome for investors – including returns (but not limited solely to this), service, track record and expertise of the team. No compensation was provided directly or indirectly by Macquarie in connection with this award. There can be no assurance that other providers or surveys would reach the same conclusions as the foregoing.
