Sección: ArtículosTítulo: Infrastructure Investment and Insurance : Insurers' Role in Financing Long-Term GrowthAutor: Insurance EuropePublicación: Brussels : Insurance Europe, 2026Descripción física: 15 p.Notas: Sumario: The paper analyses how European insurers can help close the EU's large infrastructure investment gap, estimated at 750800 billion annually for green and digital transitions, energy security, competitiveness, resilience and dual-use needs. It outlines infrastructure asset-class features, vehicles (funds, direct and co-investments, listed, evergreen/ELTIFs, debt), and why infrastructure aligns with insurers' long-term liabilities. It reviews opportunities and constraints, including regulatory/political risk, complexity, illiquidity, scalability, bankability and revenue certainty, construction risk and prudential treatment under Solvency II. It calls for a European Infrastructure Deal, stronger PPP frameworks, faster permitting, standardised contracts, project aggregation, better data and dispute-resolution mechanisms, and proportionate prudential rules for qualifying infrastructure. The paper highlights complementarities of public and private capital to accelerate delivery, reduce costs and crowd in private investment.Materia / lugar / evento: InversionesFinanciaciónInfraestructurasMercados financierosMercado de segurosAhorroInversionEuropaOtros autores: Insurance EuropeOtras clasificaciones: 212Derechos: In Copyright (InC)Referencias externas:
