abrdn has launched the Inflation-Linked Infrastructure Debt Fund (ILID), which will invest in a broad range of inflation-linked private infrastructure debt in the UK with a limited allocation to European assets. 

Working closely with LGPS Central Limited, ILID made its first closure by committing GBP220 million (US$261 million) from local pension schemes in the UK. ILID fund will invest in clean energy generation, storage and distribution, transport and social infrastructure enterprises. The main purpose of ILID is inflation protection combined with credit premiums and illiquidity. 

The fund is managed by Alex Campbell and Jeremy Alcock of abrdn's infrastructure debt team.
