AIIP Welcomes Kajima as its newest member

The Association of Infrastructure Investors in Public Private Partnerships ("AIIP") has welcomed Kajima Partnerships Limited (“Kajima”) as its newest member. Kajima, a long-term social impact investor, developer and asset manager, has a 25-year track record in the effective management and successful delivery of over 20 PPP projects that have brought both community benefit and investor value across education, healthcare, blue light, and workspace sectors. The addition of Kajima adds to the AIIP member share of the PFI market, with the total capital value of the assets owned by investment funds totalling around 65%.

The AIIP was launched in October 2023 by several of the major international infrastructure investors in UK infrastructure assets under the Public Private Partnerships model. The AIIP was established to provide one voice for the UK PPP investor market and is the first time infrastructure investment funds have come together in the UK in this way.

Chris Gill, Managing Director, Kajima Partnerships, commented:

“Over the last 25 years Kajima Partnerships has developed and invested in over £1bn of projects in the UK and Ireland. We take pride in their impact on local communities and the social impact and value our projects provide. 

We look forward to joining those who are already members of the AIIP and building on our expertise and experience of delivering sustainable social, environmental and financial benefits in PPP.

Membership will provide a perfect platform for us to work alongside our industry colleagues and peers, together, to help shape the future of PPP.”

Lord John Hutton, Chair of the AIIP, commented: 

"We welcome the continued growth of the AIIP’s membership and remain committed to working together to address industry challenges with effective solutions."
