MCIG is a substantial owner and operator of communications infrastructure primarily in Australia and the UK, and with its investment in Global Tower Partners, now in the U.S.. MCIG looks at investment opportunities that arise from the global industry trend towards privatization of government owned communications infrastructure, the sale of assets by private equity owners, and the separation of communications infrastructure assets ownership from the delivery of communications services. MCIG seeks to invest in communications infrastructure assets in OECD or comparable countries that provide security holders with predictable, long-term cash flows as well as capital growth through improved business and capital management. MCIG consists of three triple stapled entities which trade as one listed security: Macquarie Communications Infrastructure Limited (an Australian company), Macquarie Communication Infrastructure Trust (an Australian trust) and Macquarie MCG International Limited (a Bermudian company). The Macquarie Group currently has approximately AUD $89 billion of funds under management.
