CAF Asset Management Uruguay celebrated nine years of operation

The commemoration brought together representatives of investment fund managers, institutional investors, developers, rating agencies, advisors and authorities from the Ministries of Education, Economy and Finance, Labor and Public Works, CAF Uruguay, and CAF-AM's corporate team, reflecting the breadth of actors that have accompanied the development of the fund manager since 2015.

During these nine years, the Uruguay office has been instrumental in positioning CAF-AM as one of the region's most solid and consistent platforms in structured infrastructure financing. The local currency fund model-designed to reduce exchange rate risks, mobilize institutional savings and improve the bankability of projects-has made it possible to channel resources to strategic sectors such as transportation, energy, logistics and utilities, with a portfolio that stands out for both its diversification and performance. The Uruguayan operation has also been recognized for its high environmental, social and corporate governance standards, including outstanding ratings in ESG metrics in 3 of the 4 funds launched, ratings that have strengthened its credibility with investors and regulators.

The event highlighted the value of collaboration between the public and private sectors, a key element for the sustainability of the model. The presence of sectoral authorities underlined the role of infrastructure funds as vehicles capable of supporting national priorities such as the modernization of public services, logistics development and the transition to more resilient solutions. For their part, investors and administrators reaffirmed the importance of having transparent instruments and professional and consistent managers capable of offering stable returns with tangible impact.

The event concluded with a recognition of the CAF-AM Uruguay team, as well as the actors that have made possible the achievements of the fund manager. CAF-AM Uruguay enters its tenth year with a clear vision: to continue expanding the scope of the model, strengthening its pipeline and contributing to the sustainable development of the country and the region.
