Vinci Partners’ Infrastructure Segment Has Been Selected to Manage the Sustainable Regional Development Fund, With AUM Starting at R$750 Million

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, Sept. 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vinci Partners Investments Ltd. (NASDAQ: VINP) (“Vinci Partners”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), the controlling company of a leading alternative investment platform in Brazil, announced today that the Ministry of Regional Development (the “Ministry”) has selected Vinci Partners’ Infrastructure segment to manage its Sustainable Regional Development fund (the “Fund”, “FDIRS”).

The federal government hired BRL TRUST Investimentos jointly with Vinci Partners to manage the Fund’s capital through different strategies, such as the structuring of partnerships between public and private players to develop sustainable infrastructure projects in Brazil. To support these projects, our team can establish guarantee instruments that should have commitments from FDIRS and other private players. Lastly, the Fund could also invest in other infrastructure funds focused on sustainable development.

The commitment will start at approximately R$750 million and we expect that should be activated in Vinci Partners’ AUM towards the end of the fourth quarter of 2022. The mandate has a significant potential to grow over the years, considering its pre-determined hard cap to invest up to R$11 billion, as the team originates investment opportunities combined with additional capital commitments from the Ministry.

José Guilherme Souza, partner, and Head of Infrastructure for Vinci Partners, said, “Our team is very pleased and proud to be the partner of choice selected to manage such an important strategy to Brazil’s sustainable infrastructure landscape. With FDIRS, we widen the investment approach of our Infrastructure segment through a mandate with great growth potential, for both AUM and revenues in the medium to long term. We are very optimistic with the road ahead of us as we consolidate ourselves as a reference for infrastructure investments in Brazil.”
