IFM Investors is a global asset manager, founded and owned by pension funds, with capabilities in infrastructure equity and debt, private credit, real estate and listed equities. Our purpose is to invest, protect and grow the long-term retirement savings of working people. We believe healthy returns depend on healthy economic, environmental and social systems – and these systems’ are evolving on a scale never experienced before. To find opportunity, build value and meet the needs of future generations, you need scale, skill and expertise. That’s what IFM Investors has built up over 30 years.
With assets under management of €159.1 billion (as at 31 March 2026), we prioritise the interests of 849 institutional investors worldwide. IFM operates from 17 offices across Australia, Europe, North America and Asia.
Infrastructure
We believe investing sustainably is key to achieving robust investment returns over the long term, which is why we actively engage with the companies we invest in, as well as policymakers and like-minded institutions. We target essential businesses that typically have strong market positions, employ conservative leverage, operate in predictable regulatory environments, and enjoy high barriers to entry. When working with these businesses, we prioritise value-add initiatives that foster improvements in corporate strategy, operations, finance and capital expenditure.

Investment process and research
We invest with a long-term, strategic approach and aim to support the transition of existing infrastructure assets and consider sustainability-related factors when investing in new opportunities, where appropriate and consistent with the relevant investment mandate.
Where funds managed by IFM Investors own assets, typically sector experts join their boards and management committees to share their expertise to help drive performance. Where those funds finance assets, we’re in ongoing dialogue, seeking to help shape strategy.
We believe that people drive performance, and that diversity of thought drives better decision-making. By feeding in best practice and sharing knowledge, we’re helping to build resilient businesses that aim to deliver benefits not just to their shareholders, but to their workers and to the communities where they operate.
Our vision & beliefs
IFM Investors was founded by pension funds. It’s still owned by pension funds today. Our clients are stewards of capital too, with the same duty to deliver value over decades. We share a multi-generational vision: to invest, protect and grow the savings of millions of working people. We do it by investing in, owning and financing the assets our clients and their beneficiaries use every day. From Sydney Airport to the Indiana Toll Road, from energy storage to data storage, we invest in real assets that support economic activity and may help meet society’s evolving needs, while seeking to deliver positive outcomes for clients.
