Mirova has decided to group together its energy transition infrastructure, natural capital and private equity businesses on a single platform dedicated to real assets.
The consolidation of its unlisted activities onto an integrated platform will enable the company to maintain its cutting-edge expertise, while taking a comprehensive strategic view of this asset class.
Furthermore, Mirova said it will be better positioned to meet the growing needs of its clients in an ever-changing business environment, while accelerating its development to reach critical size and address the challenges of sustainable finance.
This structure will be operational from 1 January 2025 and will be headed by Raphaël Lance, current head of energy transition infrastructure funds.
Philippe Zaouati, CEO of Mirova, said: “Mirova is determined to become a leader in impact private assets, in line with our Mirova 2030 strategic roadmap. Raphaël Lance, who has over twenty years of experience in managing energy transition funds, has played a key role in Mirova's growth since its creation. I am fully confident in his vision and his ability to define a strategic roadmap that will enable us to accelerate our development in the real assets sector, strengthen our expertise and develop synergies at both management and operational levels.”
