Against a backdrop of ongoing transformation and evolving investment needs, SWEN Capital Partners is taking a new step forward by making infrastructure investment accessible to the general public. On Tuesday, May 20, the management company announced the launch of SWEN Select Infrastructures, an “evergreen” venture capital mutual fund (FCPR) designed for individual investors through life insurance or retirement savings plans.
Backed by Macif and Abeille Assurances, this new investment vehicle aims to provide direct exposure to a universe of real assets historically reserved for institutional investors. Individuals can now invest in concrete, sustainable projects, such as renewable energy, carbon-free transportation, digital networks, and water and waste treatment infrastructure.
Building on a strategy launched in 2021, SWEN Capital Partners is expanding its offering to private clients. The goal: to meet growing demand for alternative, resilient investment solutions aligned with long-term challenges.
According to the G20, global infrastructure needs will reach nearly $100 trillion by 2040. Energy, mobility, telecoms, and essential services: these are all promising sectors with low correlation to traditional markets and strong protection against inflation.
Led by Thibault Richon, the fund targets projects in operation or under development, primarily in OECD countries, with 75% of assets located in Europe. Three key themes guide the selection process: energy transition, infrastructure digitalization, and demographic shifts.
Approved by the AMF in 2024, the SWEN Select Infrastructures fund raised €40 million at launch, with a target of €300 million over five years. Classified as an Article 8 SFDR fund, it targets an annual net return of over 6%, with a minimum cash allocation of 10%.
Since April 2025, Mutavie, a subsidiary of Macif, has been offering the fund as part of its life insurance products, providing investors with an impact investment solution that combines performance with societal benefit.
