IFM Investors welcome Atlas Arteria Board appointment

IFM Investors has today welcomed Ken Daley’s proposed appointment to the Atlas Arteria Board, initially as an Observer from 1 January 2023 and then as a Director if shareholders support his appointment at the 2023 AGM in May.

Mr Daley’s appointment aims to protect and enhance the investment made by IFM Global Infrastructure Fund (IFM GIF), which we believe is an interest shared by all Atlas Arteria shareholders.

Mr Daley is a globally recognised infrastructure leader with decades of senior executive, board-level and operational toll road experience, with expertise across Europe, the United States, Australia, Latin America and Asia.

His previous executive experience in toll roads has included being the CEO of Aleatica Group, the CEO of Indiana Toll Road, and President, International Development at Transurban. Mr Daley is also a former director of the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association (IBTTA), which is the worldwide association of toll road operators.

IFM GIF is pleased to have reached this resolution with the Atlas Arteria Board and looks forward to engaging collaboratively with the company.
