Private Corner launches evergreen infrastructure fund as demand for private markets access grows

Private Corner has launched its first evergreen infrastructure fund of funds with Meridiam, targeting growing investor appetite for long-term exposure to institutional private market strategies through a more flexible investment structure.

Private markets investment platform Private Corner has launched its first evergreen infrastructure fund of funds, strengthening the trend towards more accessible and flexible private market investment vehicles for wealth investors.

The Meridiam Global Infrastructure Strategies fund has been launched in partnership with global infrastructure investment specialist Meridiam and is designed to provide investors with diversified exposure to infrastructure assets through an evergreen structure.

The fund will invest across Meridiam’s global infrastructure platform, targeting opportunities through a combination of primary fund investments, secondary transactions and co-investments. The strategy focuses on long-term infrastructure themes, including sustainable infrastructure development and essential assets supporting economic growth.

The launch reflects the continued evolution of private markets as asset managers seek to broaden access beyond traditional institutional investors. Evergreen funds, which are designed to operate without a fixed termination date, are increasingly being used to provide investors with ongoing exposure to private assets while incorporating subscription and liquidity mechanisms.

Unlike traditional closed-end private equity and infrastructure funds, evergreen vehicles are structured around a continuing investment model, requiring managers and service providers to support ongoing investor activity, regular valuations, reporting requirements and liquidity management.

The growth of evergreen structures is creating new operational demands across the private markets ecosystem. Fund administrators are increasingly required to support more frequent investor dealing, enhanced reporting requirements and complex valuation processes as managers expand into private wealth channels.

Private Corner’s latest launch comes as asset managers continue to develop new solutions aimed at meeting rising demand from investors seeking access to alternative assets traditionally dominated by institutional portfolios.

The move highlights a broader shift within private markets, where evergreen structures are emerging as a key route for managers looking to combine institutional investment strategies with greater accessibility for a wider investor base.

For fund administrators, the expansion of evergreen products represents a significant opportunity to provide the infrastructure needed to support the next generation of private market investing.
