Infra Dig – The PIDG Interview
This latest episode of the IJGlobal podcast – Infra Dig – sees the spotlight turn on infrastructure and energy investments across Africa and Asia Pacific.
IJGlobal editorial director Angus Leslie Melville sits down with Philippe Valahu – chief executive of Private Infrastructure Development Group (PIDG) – for a tell-all interview on the investment environment.
Philippe takes the listener through the reality of investing across African and APAC infra/energy where there’s an historically lower default rate than in many developed market regions… and a considerably lower default rate than other emerging market regions.
He explains why sponsors should have more confidence to get involved in infrastructure and energy across both Africa and Asia and not be deterred by headline risk, building understanding of the strong financial performance of infrastructure assets across these regions.
