The new
Credit Agricole fund,
which will make investments in jointly owned public-private infrastructure projects, follows in the footsteps of a $7.5 billion
infrastructure fund for Goldman, Sachs & Co. and 3i Group plc's $1.2
billion 3i India Infrastructure Fund. Also out raising capital are
Citigroup Inc., which is marketing a $5 billion infrastructure fund, and Macquarie Capital Group Ltd. and State Bank of India, who recently
unveiled plans to co-raise a $2 billion infrastructure fund. -
