GIC, CPP Investments, and Equinix form joint venture to raise US$15b 

GIC will hold a 37.5% equity stake in the JV.

Singapore's sovereign wealth fund, GIC, will form a joint venture (JV) with digital infrastructure company, Equinix and and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments) to raise over US$15b.

Under the terms of the agreement, GIC and CCP Ivnesmtens will both hold a 37.5% equity stake in the JV, whilst Equinix will own 25%.

The joint venture will take on debt to raise US$15b capital.

The JV will speed up the growth of Equinix’s xScale data centre portfolio, enabling hyperscale companies to expand their deployments at IBX data centres. 

The JV will also nearly triple the xScale program’s investment capital upon completion.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
