A wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) will invest up to $1.5 billion in Singapore-based GLP to fuel its global expansion. The partnership aims to accelerate GLP’s strategy of developing large-scale platforms in logistics, digital infrastructure, and renewable energy. ADIA, which has supported GLP through managed funds for years, now moves into a more active role.
Strategic Shift Strengthens Partnership
The deal begins with an initial $500 million capital deployment, intended to speed up GLP’s mission and broaden its operational reach. With this new commitment, the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund evolves from a limited partner to a direct shareholder, signalling a deeper strategic alignment between the two entities. This shift reflects a growing trend among sovereign wealth funds to take a more hands-on approach in global investments, ensuring better influence over growth strategies and returns.
GLP Expands Across Key Sectors
GLP has been steadily expanding its presence in logistics real estate, renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and data centres. Its data centre revenue surged by 43% year-on-year to $193 million, according to Global SWF. Currently, GLP manages over $80 billion in assets across real estate and private equity, positioning it as a major player in global infrastructure development. With ADIA’s backing, the company is set to accelerate its expansion in these critical sectors and capture rising demand in digital and sustainable solutions.
