Investing in infrastructure companies, assets, and projects across Scotland
SFT Investments (SFTi) is a subsidiary of SFT and is an investment company where investments are managed by SFT appointed directors.
SFTi primarily invests in our hub community infrastructure programme through the five hub delivery companies, and has made investments in the 41 design, build, finance and maintain (DBFM) health and education projects that have been delivered through the programme.
In addition, SFTi also invests in various Limited Liability Partnerships under our Housing Delivery Partnership programme, which is aimed at increasing the supply of affordable housing in partnership with local authorities. Further details of this work can be found on our Housing workstream page, here.
Through its board appointments, SFTi works alongside fellow investors and stakeholders to deliver world class infrastructure to local communities and increase the supply of quality affordable housing. The SFTi team brings passion, experience and a wide range of skills in pursuit of delivering the best possible outcomes from our programmes.
As well as meeting target investment returns, through its investments, SFTi seeks to influence decision-making in relation to key government policy drivers notably the transition to net zero and delivery of sustainable places.
