Florence Carasse founded Refai Infrastructure with a clear mandate: get infrastructure deals over the line, independently, with the senior leadership sponsors and investors need.
With 15 years at the crossroads of infrastructure, private debt and UK insurance, including deploying over £12bn at a major specialist UK insurer, she has built strong relationships with CIOs and infrastructure partners across the market.
Refai Infrastructure is built on a proven track record in long-dated, investment grade financing for UK insurers, closing large-ticket deals across water, transportation, student accommodation, digital infrastructure and renewables in the UK, Europe and the US.
We judge each deal on its credit quality, structure, and risk-adjusted viability - as an investor would - then match it with its best-aligned partner, from UK insurers and pension funds to high-yield infrastructure funds.
We help infrastructure sponsors and family offices better understand and capture the UK insurance market in a changing and complex regulatory environment.
