With a strong emphasis on sustainable and innovative investments, Macquarie Capital has been involved in high-profile projects worldwide, contributing to the group's reputation as a leader in infrastructure financing.

Operating through a network of offices in major financial centers including New York, London, and Hong Kong, Macquarie Capital manages a diverse portfolio that includes direct investments in companies and assets, often targeting emerging markets and growth opportunities.
