Alternative Investments is an investment boutique within OMIGSA is the largest alternative Manager in South Africa. The Alternative Investments team manages investments in private equity, infrastructure, developmental impact assets and mezzanine debt.

Infrastructure

We are one of the largest investors in infrastructure in South Africa, managing over R10 billion of infrastructural assets on behalf of Old Mutual and third party investors. The team specializes in originating, structuring, developing and executing infrastructure investment transactions and managing the asset thereafter. The social imperative in the South African context is empowering communities through economic development. This necessitates direct fixed investment in the economic drivers of an economy. Infrastructure provides the enabling platform on which all other economic activity can be based. For example, in tangible terms, our investments in South African world-class toll road infrastructure are vital for both imports and exports of manufactured goods. Similarly our investment in Southern African rail assets enables commodities to be railed to port. Major investments include:

Transport infrastructure (N3 Toll Concession, Bakwena Platinum Corridor; Trans African Concession, Lekki, New Limpopo Bridge); Social Infrastructure (Bloemfontein Correctional Contracts, DTI Campus, DoE Campus);Power and Gas (Matola Gas Pipeline); Renewable Energy (Umoya Wind Farm, Cookhouse Windfarm – Africa’s largest windfarm); Housing (Afhco)

The core of our team has over 80 years of combined investment experience and an impressive depth and breadth of skills.

Development Impact Funds

The Development Impact team manages a number of funds, pursuing doublebottom-line returns, that is, a commercially acceptable return and a positive social impact. The funds invest in assets/ areas where gaps or backlogs in social infrastructure, economic development and job creation have not been adequately addressed by financial institutions. This includes affordable housing, (Housing Impact Fund of South Africa (HIFSA) SA R9.5bn and Old Mutual Housing Ecosystems Africa Fund (OMHEAF) Fund Raising black-owned SMME’s and social infrastructure such as schools (Schools And Education Investment Impact Fund Of South Africa (Schools Fund) R1.2bn. The team responsible for these funds has in excess of 140 years of relevant experience.

Favorable performance, innovative product launches, as well as increased awareness of the merits of alternative investments, have been very strong catalysts for our rapid growth.
