“The new platform will bring together the experience, technical capabilities, track record and financial strength of two major companies to develop airport infrastructure in Colombia and the region. This is an important milestone in the materialisation of Grupo Argos’ strategic thesis.”

The deal builds on MAM’s global airport experience through the platform with the local partner.

Additionally, the airport platform covers three private airport initiatives, which Odinsa has been pursuing in Colombia.

The deal was executed by Macquarie Infrastructure Partners V, an Americas-focused, unlisted infrastructure fund.

Macquarie Infrastructure Partners CEO Karl Kuchel said: “We are excited to continue to increase our footprint in the region and invest in high-quality infrastructure assets that deliver essential services.

“This investment expands our highly-valued existing partnership with Odinsa, and we look forward to working collaboratively with key stakeholders going forward to further strengthen transportation infrastructure across the region.”
