Infrastructure is one of the foundations on which economies are built. It’s essential for meeting the needs of growing and ageing populations, it has a role to play in the defence build-outs that are required in a more volatile geopolitical environment, and its increasingly critical to the energy and climate transitions. New research from Aberdeen suggests at least $64 trillion will need to be spent on infrastructure globally over the next 25 years. Paul Diggle is joined by Robert Gilhooly and Sameer Amin to discuss how “infrastructure gaps” can be identified and quantified, how stretched governments can afford to build infrastructure, and examples of infrastructure projects that Aberdeen has helped fund.
