Global overview
There were 299 transactions, worth a combined USD 86.03bn that reached financial close in Q1 2016. InfraDeals recorded USD 46.96bn of project financing – USD 41.82bn of bank financing (89%) and USD 5.14bn of capital markets financing (11%). The volume of finance raised was a slight decrease on the USD 53bn raised for 304 deals in the same period of 2015. The UK (73 deals), USA (36 deals), France (22 deals) and Spain (20 deals) were the most active countries, accounting for half of all deal-flow. Sectorally, power accounted for 31.3% of transactions, transportation 30.1% and renewables 26.6%.
Japanese lenders continued to dominate
the global MLA tables with SMBC (USD 2.58bn, 31 deals) and MUFG (USD 2.56bn, 29 deals) securing the top positions. Clifford Chance was once again top legal advisor, closing 30 deals worth over USD 14.5bn in the period.
Regional overview:
EMEA In the EMEA region, highlights included the USD 2.65bn acquisition of London City Airport by a consortium of institutional investors, including AIMCo, Borealis, OTTP and the Kuwait Investment Authority. A debt package of over USD 1bn is understood to have supported the deal with margins starting between 125bps and 150bps over Libor.
Solar plant and highway sponsors refinanced existing debt facilities in eight transactions worth a combined USD 2.47bn. Infra funds were also active with EQT Infrastructure Fund II divesting EEW Energy from Waste in Germany and North Haven Infrastructure Partners II (NHIP II) raising USD 1.15bn in bank financing to build an Italian gas storage project. The PP11 1729MW Gas-fired power plant secured a USD 1.5bn refinancing package as one of the larger deals to close outside of Europe.
The outlook for infrastructure investors provides a number of opportunities with notable sales processes including the
M6, Thames Water, Thyssengas, Parkia, SGI and Transitgas.
Canada P3
Two municipal P3s reached financial close in the first quarter. These were the USD 1.26bn Edmonton LRT project, and in the city of Saint John a USD 143m wastewater deal.. This compares to eight P3s that reached financial close in 1Q15. According to analysis by InfraDeals it is unlikely that more than ten P3s will reach financial close in Canada in 2016. This year is being described as a bidding year and InfraDeals places the Canadian P3 pipeline at between the CAD 30-50bn mark.

Global overview
US P3
In the US P3 market the Purdue University's USD 70m State Street Redevelopment project reached financial close, marking the emergence of smaller capex projects. The La Guardia redevelopment, the SH288 and the Purple Line are all expected to reach financial close in 2Q16.
M&A US and Canada
M&A activity in North America was relatively strong, with 22 deals closing in the first three months of the year. The major highlight of the quarter was Borealis, CPPIB and OTPP's USD 2.9bn acquisition of the Chicago Skyway, which was the fourth largest North America brownfield deal in the last five years. The energy
sector proved to be healthy as ever, as the vast majority, 20 out of 22 to be exact, of M&A deals occurred in the sector. Asia Pacific
1Q16 was a quiet quarter for Asia, with thirty six transactions closing worth more than USD 17bn. Nine transactions were in Australia and the remaining 27 were located in APAC ex Australia and New Zealand. Eight deals reached financial close in Australia, which were worth USD 6.89, compared to USD 9.18bn in the first quarter of 2015. Political disputes delayed several projects including the Port of Melbourne sale in Victoria and the sales of Utah Point and Fremantle port in Western Australia.
Activity in the Philippines, another active market, slowed down due to forthcoming Presidential elections in May. The regional pipeline in 2016 includes the USD 7bn Manila Bay Coastal Expessway in the Philippines which is undergoing feasibility studies. The USD 6.8bn Asciano privatisation is due for an ACCC ruling in May. EOIs were released for the USD 4bn Port of Melbourne privatisation in March. Latin America
Twenty-seven deals reached financial close in Latin America and the Caribbean in 1Q16. 48% were in the transport sector, 41% in renewables, 7% in power and 4% in telecommunications. 41% of projects to close were greenfield and 27% of those were PPPs.
Brazil remains the biggest market in the region with 11 deals closing in the quarter and the largest deal, the USD 3.43bn Ilha Solteira and Jupiá hydro plant acquisition by China Three Gorges. Both Chile and Mexico closed five deals each. Notable projects that are set to close in 2Q16 are the Santiago airport expansion, awarded to the consortium Aéroports de Paris, Astaldi and Vinci worth USD 900m. In Colombia, the Santana-Mocoa-Neiva Highway, part of the 4G highway program is set to reach financial close. Brazil should see more brownfield activity with many of the country’s biggest construction companies selling their assets. A notable sale set to close in 2Q is the acquisition of Ecorodovías by Italian companies SIAS and Atlantia.
