Linklaters has advised EQT on the set-up and launch of EQT Nexus ELTIF Infrastructure, an evergreen European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) domiciled in Luxembourg. The fund is an extension of EQT’s existing Nexus Infrastructure evergreen strategy, on the launch of which Linklaters advised in 2025, and aims to give non-professional investors in the EU and EEA exposure to similar deal flow and value-creation opportunities as institutional investors in EQT’s closed-ended infrastructure funds.
EQT Nexus ELTIF Infrastructure is designed to provide eligible individual investors and institutions with exposure to EQT’s global infrastructure platform, spanning digital infrastructure, energy and environmental, transport and logistics, and social infrastructure.
The launch of EQT Nexus ELTIF Infrastructure follows the introduction of EQT’s first ELTIF, EQT Nexus ELTIF Private Equity, in September 2025, on which Linklaters also advised. Both funds are part of EQT’s Nexus evergreen product suite, which aims to channel capital into long-term, illiquid asset classes and expand access to private markets for a broader range of investors.
Silke Bernard, Investment Funds Partner at Linklaters, commented:
“We are delighted to have supported our client EQT on the launch of EQT Nexus ELTIF Infrastructure, further extending their Nexus Infrastructure evergreen strategy for individual investors. This mandate highlights Luxembourg’s role as a leading hub for ELTIFs under the ELTIF regime and reflects the increasing appetite from non-professional investors for access to high quality private market strategies, including infrastructure.”
The core Linklaters Luxembourg team, specialising in investment funds, was led by Partner Silke Bernard, supported by Counsel Mariusz Wiese and Associates Camille Kohn, Luis Gabriel Jiménez, Deniz Aktaş and Alexandra Laplante.
