ASX Announcement
Lend Lease sells additional PPP assets to UK Infrastructure Fund
4 October 2011
Lend Lease has today completed the sale of equity in a further three operational UK healthcare and education Public Private Partnership (PPP) assets to the Lend Lease UK Infrastructure Fund (the Fund) for a consideration of £30 million (circa A$47 million).
The Fund was launched in December 2010 with £220 million in committed capital available to invest in social infrastructure assets over the next five years. On launch, the Fund purchased established healthcare, education and accommodation PPP assets from the Group and had committed capital to fund the acquisition of future assets being delivered by the Group. Lend Lease has a minority co-investment in the Fund alongside the majority investor, Dutch pension fund service provider, PGGM.
Lend Lease Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Steve McCann, said the delivery of the Fund mandate is in line with the Group’s strategy to recycle capital and another example of the Group’s integrated model.
“The transaction enables Lend Lease to recycle further capital in the UK as well as remain actively involved through the provision to the Fund of asset, facilities management and fund management services,”said Mr McCann.
