    Date 18/07/2024

    In a notable shift within the infrastructure investment landscape, Thames Water will be removed from the infra300® market index, effective July 1, 2024. Thames Water had been included in the USD290bn index, which tracks the performance of 300 infrastructure assets in 20 countries, since its inception date 24 years ago. This decision follows the recent draft price determination and the imposition of a special administration regime on Thames Water, both of which have generated considerable uncertainty regarding the company's ability to attract equity investors to sustain its status as a viable private infrastructure investment. By June 30, 2024, the company's market capital, as reported in infraMetrics®, had plummeted by 51.8% compared to the previous quarter.
