**05/19/2025 – 09:30 PM**
In March 2025, IMM Investment and Hamilton Lane (Nasdaq: HLNE) finalized a landmark secondary transaction, with Hamilton acquiring existing Limited Partner interests in IMM’s $1.8 billion ninth infrastructure fund—the first APAC-focused infrastructure secondary deal for IMM. Highlighting Korea’s growing appeal, IMM CEO Jin Heum Paek cited global investor confidence in the region’s long-term infrastructure potential, while Hamilton’s Brent Burnett emphasized secondary markets’ high-opportunity appeal. The partnership leverages Hamilton’s $956 billion AUM and expertise to scale IMM’s core-plus and value-add strategies in energy, digital, and mobility sectors, reinforcing IMM’s expansion from Korea-centric player to regional leader via its Singapore hub. The deal reflects rising cross-border collaboration in Asia’s private infrastructure markets amid energy transition and digitalization trends.
