The InfraCorp, which takes off in the second quarter of this year, has a combined debt and equity take-off capital of N15 trillion, and will be managed by an independent infrastructure fund manager.
The dedicated privately-managed infrastructure and industrial vehicle will harness opportunities for Nigeria’s infrastructure development by originating, structuring, executing and managing end-to-end bankable projects in that space.
The CBN and other promoters, the Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) and the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) are now requesting for expression of interest proposals from qualified asset managers active in the infrastructure sector to manage a newly-created world class institution.
The successful asset manager, the apex bank said, will be responsible for establishing a General partner/Asset Manager organization, develop the consolidated business plan and financial model for InfraCorp and its subsidiaries.
