Unlocking Data Centre Asset-Backed Securitisations in Asia

The rapid growth in the digital infrastructure space demands innovative financing solutions to support the evolving Asia Pacific data centre (DC) market, poised to become the world's largest by the end of this year, surpassing North America.

So why is now the right moment for securitisation in the APAC region? Across Europe and the US, as DCs hit a more mature stage in their financing lifecycle, we are already seeing a shift away from traditional financing toward asset-backed securitisation. North America leads the way in DC securitisations with Europe primed for a rise of asset backed financings imminently. 

We see continued growth in financing needs in the following areas:

  • Capital Expenditure
  • Operational Expenditure (OpEx)
  • Strategic Investments
As the financing landscape develops and the shift from developed to developing markets continues, it will be vital for market participants to be advised by those with in-depth sector knowledge as well as international expertise.

This page serves as a hub for the developments in the region's digital infrastructure financing landscape – in particular, securitisation.
