Toll-road investment company owning stakes in motorways in France, the United States and Germany.
Toll-road investment company owning stakes in motorways in France, the United States and Germany.
Mostly paid by dividends from a minority stake in APRR, France's largest motorway network, which Eiffage controls, so French traffic and toll increases carry the company. French tolls rise by formula each year, and the APRR concession runs to 2035, after which the road returns to the state.
In one line: A toll-road infrastructure fund like a smaller Transurban.
Moat: wide (regulatory licence, installed base). Long-dated government toll concessions grant exclusive rights on established motorway corridors.
