Infrastructure

AlphaReal’s award-winning social infrastructure offering focuses on three key pillars – health, housing & education. We have deployed over £1.3 billion into assets that provide positive social value.

Social infrastructure supports the delivery of essential needs-based services.

Our impact awards

A multi-billion-pound market opportunity

Social infrastructure investments can deliver long-term, resilient, inflation-linked income streams for investors whilst delivering a positive impact to communities. AlphaReal estimates the shortage of fit-for-purpose social infrastructure assets in the UK to be more than £50 billion. Our investment strategy is underpinned by strong and long-term market drivers which collectively support a multi-billion-pound market opportunity.

Our investment strategy is characterised by

Future-fit assets

We focus on new build and change of use assets, which recognises the embodied carbon, to deliver future-fit assets for 25+ years. Our long-term approach supports positive environmental and social impact outcomes.

Supporting communities

Our approach enables additional provision of essential needs-based services to assist the wellbeing of communities in the UK.  We support alignment of institutional capital and public funding to alleviate capacity constraints across our three pillars of health, housing and education.

Income focus

We generate market returns by investing in long-lease real estate with predominately inflation-linked rents using caps and collars to support the affordability for tenants and the delivery of income growth for investors.
