au PE
PEI is the leading financial information group dedicated
to the alternative asset classes of infrastructure, private
equity and real estate globally.
Two things set PEI apart. The first is our global remit.
The industries we cover are inherently international
and resolutely cross-border, and can only be covered
effectively by a publishing company that can connect with
them in every market and in any time zone. Thats why
PEI has offices in London, New York, Singapore and Hong
Kong, with a dedicated team in each location allowing
us to identify and analyse the markets big picture trends.
The second and most important difference is the quality
of our news, insight and intelligence. Our market-
leading publications include Infrastructure Investor and
www.infrastructureinvestor.com. Our agenda-setting
conferences attract the industrys top players from across
the world. Our library of books, directories and databases
provide vital know-how and analysis on fundamental
aspects of alternative assets.
