Winston Score History

The full picture

Foresight Group is a UK-based investment manager that focuses on infrastructure and private equity. It raises money from pension funds, institutions, and wealthy individuals, then invests that money into real assets like solar farms, wind projects, roads, and smaller private businesses. The firm manages several listed investment trusts on the London Stock Exchange, making it one of the more established specialist managers in the UK renewable infrastructure space.

Foresight earns money by charging management fees on the assets it oversees, plus performance fees when investments do well. It manages roughly £12 billion in assets and operates mainly across the UK, Europe, and Australia. Its focus on infrastructure gives it some stability, since these assets tend to produce steady, long-term cash flows that attract income-seeking investors. The key growth driver is continued demand for clean energy investment as governments push toward net-zero targets, though rising interest rates remain a risk because they make infrastructure assets relatively less attractive compared to bonds.
