General description of organisation
White Summit Capital AG ("White Summit Capital", "WSC", the "Firm" or the "Manager") is an independent infrastructure fund manager headquartered in Madrid. Founded in 2011, the Firm has been investing in mid-market, value-add infrastructure opportunities across Western Europe on behalf of its investors.
Since inception, WSC has strategically focused on powering energy transition infrastructure, deploying capital into profitable growth sectors that are critical to a lower-carbon economy and a resilient energy sector. These sectors include decarbonisation of demand, reliable energy and sustainable transportation.
Within these sectors, WSC focuses on scaling up existing infrastructure platforms that are asset-heavy with operating assets and management teams; feature scalable business models with no technology risk; and allow WSC to have strong governance rights at acquisition.
Reason for membership with SSF
Based in Zug and being an asset manager that seeks for opportunities in the field of renewable energy and infrastructure, ESG is a key topic for us in evaluating these opportunities. At WSC we believe in these three letters as they not only represent a tool box to select sustainable investments, but also to support our long-term strategy. We are convinced that the foundation of an attractive long-term investment lies in the consistent applicationv of ESG principles. Without those the risk of underperforming due to unforeseen costs is just too high to pursue these so-called opportunities further. As such, we think the membership of the SSF is a key tool to learn and expand further on this journey. We are not there yet, but want to be there in the foreseeable future.
