NEW YORK & STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 31, 2006--Credit Suisse and GE (NYSE: GE) announced today that they intend to form a US$1 billion joint venture to invest in global infrastructure assets. The joint venture, which Credit Suisse plans to form with GE Infrastructure, intends to invest in energy and transportation infrastructure assets worldwide. Each party plans to commit US$500 million to the joint venture.

Targets will include power generation and transmission, gas storage and pipelines, water assets, airports, air traffic control, ports, railroads and toll roads. The infrastructure joint venture estimates the market opportunity at US$500 billion in developed markets and US$1 trillion in emerging markets over the next five years.

Credit Suisse and GE plan to name a team of senior executives to manage the joint venture in due course.

"This joint venture will help propel our international growth in serving the global need for trillions of dollars of investments to improve energy and transportation infrastructure," said Dave Calhoun, GE Vice Chairman for GE Infrastructure. "Combining GE's and Credit Suisse's expertise, global footprint and financial strength is a compelling way to satisfy the thirst for infrastructure investment."

Re: Global Infrastructure Partners (gip) Owned By Credit Suisse & GE Not Ogunlesi by Anambra1stSon(op):
As at 2006 when Adebayo Ogunlesi was senior executive of Credit Suisse bank a global investment bank and financial services firm founded and based in Switzerland. Headquartered in Zürich, Ogunlesi and three other senior executives was mandated by Credit Suisse and formed infrastructure investment fund in collaboration with Global Electric(GE) he was named to head Credit Suisse GIP in 2006, now GIP is Consortium, helping a company to form GIP doesn't mean he is the owner, he is employee of Credit Suisse and GE who appointed him and other senior executives to head GIP immediately it was established

Re: Global Infrastructure Partners (gip) Owned By Credit Suisse & GE Not Ogunlesi by Anambra1stSon(op):
GIP was established in 2006, as at then Ogunlesi was Credit Suisse senior executive, he only assisted the firms to established GIP with four other senior executive members with the backing of General Electric and Credit Suisse and they were named to head GIP after it was established.

The OP, kettykings and all of you supporting him are extremely ignorant.
I am amazed you don't know how private equity firms work.
The two companies mentioned by the ignorant op were the first investors in GIP, today there are many others with assets over $80 billion under management.
Hate can truly make people stupid.

Being a founding partner doesn't mean he is the owner, Ogunlesi was former head of global investment banking at Credit Suisse First Boston before being promoted to chief client officer and executive vice chairman, he was one of the senior executives mandated to form IGP a private equity firm own by Credit Suisse and GE

You don’t know that it’s same person with different monikers? Lol! You don’t know that guy at all. If Ogunlesi was an Igbo man, una no go rest for nairaland again

The guy too slow Mehn.... He said credit suisse owns GIP and they’re the one that told Ogunlesi to be managing it grin. See thinking !

GIP has many partners! The founder, chairman/CEO is Ogunlesi! If you found a company and people come to you to buy shares, does that makes it less your company? NO! But then, like they do call them on Instagram, Agenda must agend!

They must to hate on what’s above them ni shaa!

From your screen shots, it says 4 senior bankers at credit suisse, including former head of investment banking, Ogunlesi have set up banks first infrastructure funds, with GE USA..


The report never said they form GIP. Credit suisse forming Infrastructure fund in USA has nothing to GIP. The infrastructure funds was between Credit suisse & GE!

When banks form infrastructure funds, it means focusing on types of securities within the industries that build up the nation's infrastructure... Which means credit Suisse was only doing it own job as a bank, not anything relating to GIP..
