CC&L Infrastructure discusses digital infrastructure and how it fits into institutional investment portfolios

Digital infrastructure is becoming an increasingly prominent topic in institutional investment discussions. In a recent Benefits and Pensions Monitor article, “Is it time to embrace digital infrastructure?”, managing directors Kaitlin Blainey and Andrew Parkes were interviewed, exploring how investors are approaching this fast‑growing segment and what it could mean for portfolio construction.
Highlighted in the piece is how digital infrastructure is being viewed as a complement to traditional infrastructure portfolios rather than a replacement. As investor demand for essential, long-duration assets grows, digital infrastructure is increasingly seen as aligned with the defensive and income-oriented characteristics long associated with the broader asset class.
The article also reflects the growing importance of expertise beyond asset selection alone. Digital infrastructure can play a strategic role within diversified institutional portfolios, particularly as investors weigh considerations around scalability, resilience and long-term capital deployment.
