Canadian Investments Surge in India

Canadian Investments Surge in India

Canadian institutional money is pouring into India. One of our  earlier blogs talks about Toronto-based Brookfield acquiring the telecom towers of India’s Reliance Communications. The Brookfield-Reliance Infratel transaction worth $1.6 billion is the second-biggest private equity transaction ever in the country.

Last October, in one of India’s largest deals in the commercial property space, Brookfield Asset Management acquired Hiranandani Group‘s 4.5 million square feet of offices and retail space in Powai, Mumbai, for approximately $1 billion.

Canadian asset managers from pension or PE funds have been the biggest investors in the last one year, reports the Economic Times. The Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board or CPPIB, Caisse de depôt et placement du Quebec (CDPQ), Ontario Teachers Fund, PSP Investments, Brookfield and Fairfax, have jointly committed around $7-8 billion across companies and funds so far, according to industry estimates. This investment is among the single-largest country-wide commitment towards India in recent times.

“Our long investment horizon aligns to the financing and capital needs of India’s economy, growing entrepreneur culture and the strength of business in the country,” says Suyi Kim, Managing Director, Head of Asia Pacific at CPPIB.
