Boston, MA, November 2024 – AXA IM Alts, a global leader in alternative investments with €184 billion of assets under management, has been honoured with the “Sustainable Infrastructure Investment Firm of the Year - Europe, 2024” award from the Global Brand Frontier Awards, conducted by Boston Brand Research & Media. This prestigious award recognizes AXA IM Alts’ commitment to sustainable infrastructure investments across Europe, integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles to support the transition to a decarbonized, electrified, and digitalized world.

Head of Infrastructure at AXA IM Alts, Mark Gilligan, expressed the company’s passion and strategy for sustainable investments, stating, “It may seem natural that Europe’s largest alternatives manager should offer a Europe-only infrastructure strategy. However, our decision was based on several factors, including opportunity, expertise, and a recognition that the market was underserved by an evergreen core-to-core-plus infrastructure approach. Based in Europe’s infrastructure hubs of London and Paris, our team is strategically positioned to leverage a pan-European network and deliver impactful, sustainable infrastructure investments. We focus on Europe, and we hope you join us."
