According to an Infrastructure Investor survey of the UK market, one-third of infrastructure investors think the government is “unlikely to succeed†in attracting £20 billion (£25 billion; $32 billion) of pension capital into infrastructure, 65 per cent feel the Pension Infrastructure Platform “won’t make much differenceâ€, and two-thirds feel criticism of the Private Finance Initiative (PFI) has been “mostly wrongâ€. The survey collected opinions of over 200 members of the infrastructure investment community. Almost 60 per cent of respondents believe “lack of clarity from the government†is “the one thing that gives the most discouragement to infrastructure investors in the UKâ€. Ministers have talked about attracting institutional investment, but there are still question marks over how exactly this will happen.
