PARIS, February 20 2026 – Proskauer has advised Meridiam on the closing of the Meridiam Infrastructure Europe Core Fund, a €2.2 billion vehicle dedicated to the long‑term ownership and active management of strategic European infrastructure assets.
The vehicle brings together 22 high‑quality infrastructure assets located in 10 European countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Finland, as well as in certain EBRD operating countries. The portfolio covers key sectors such as sustainable mobility, essential public services and low‑carbon solutions. Backed by long‑term concession contracts and strong operational performance, it offers long‑term visibility and stable returns.
This transaction is part of Meridiam’s strategy of regularly offering liquidity windows to its investors committed to 25‑year structures. The new vehicle allows existing investors to choose between liquidity and continuing their commitment, while giving new investors immediate access to a mature, diversified and resilient portfolio. The fund attracted strong international demand, with nearly 70% of commitments coming from new investors.
In addition, Meridiam* and Private Corner have launched Meridiam Global Infrastructure Strategies, the group’s first evergreen fund of funds dedicated to the retail market. This product enables individual investors to access a diversified portfolio of operational infrastructure, made up of flagship assets from the Meridiam Infrastructure Europe Core Fund.
