Weil has advised Actis, a leading growth markets investor in sustainable infrastructure, on the fundraising for its second Actis Long Life Infrastructure Fund (ALLIF2), with US$1.7 billion of commitments to its strategy investing in growth markets operating infrastructure.

The Actis long life infrastructure strategy invests into brownfield infrastructure assets across growth markets in Asia, Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Core sectors include renewable energy, electricity transmission and distribution networks, district cooling, toll roads, and digital infrastructure.

The Fund has received strong support from both existing investors as well as new investors, comprising pension funds, funds of funds, insurance companies and sovereign wealth funds from Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East. The fund close builds on the successful deployment of ALLIF1, which raised US$1.3 billion and closed in 2019.

This successful closing is the most recent in a series of high-profile infrastructure fundraises for Weil’s Private Funds Group which is ranked as the #1 global legal advisor for 2025 by Infrastructure Investor, based on the total value of infrastructure funds formed worldwide. As shown by the Infrastructure Investor ranking, Weil advised on funds totalling nearly US$35 billion in commitments during the 12 months in consideration, a full US$12 billion more than the next closest firm.
