Pulse Survey: The latest trends in investor sentiment, industry reflections and core market projections

After six months of dramatic changes: shifting global tariffs policy, investor sentiment dropping for the US, and a variable infrastructure landscape, the results for GIIA’s Q4 autumn survey are here. Measuring key infrastructure investment markets in North America, Europe and beyond - including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, European Union, America, Canada and Australia, as well as Belgium and Ireland, our survey aims to capture the core market trends and sentiment impacting infrastructure investment.

In a global shakeup following US elections, parts of Europe were able to draw in new attention with the Nordics, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands pulling to the front as big winners. However, after a six-month period of what GIIA predicted as an ‘infrastructure pause’ in the US, America has regained its iron grip

The PULSE survey highlights another big story: the long-awaited return of a more positive sentiment towards the United Kingdom. After a tumble during Q2, popularity within European markets has changed once again. Barriers to investment and positive outlooks for the future are also covered in this broad recap of the past six months of market activity and attitude.

GIIA’s Infrastructure Pulse survey, conducted by Alvarez & Marsal, is completely unique. Pulling from across the globe, it offers incredibly comprehensive insights into market sentiment among the world’s leading infrastructure investors.
