Acciona Concesiones Eyes State Projects

Mexico’s Acciona Concesiones is looking to participate in several infrastructure projects in the Mexican states of Guerrero, Chiapas and Yucatan, said Sergio Suarez Morales, the company’s director of operations at Spanish infrastructure firm Acciona Concesiones. “We are working with the governments to structure the deals, but everything is still preliminary at this point,” he said. Acciona is looking to invest in long-term social infrastructure such as road and tunnel projects and is actively competing to participate in the office building space. Acciona Concesiones currently manages concessions for the Hospital Regional de Alta Especialidad del Bajio and the Universidad Politecnica in San Luis Potosi, both of which are operated under a public-private partnership scheme. Morales was speaking on the sidelines of the LatinFinance Infrastructure and Sub-Sovereign Finance in Mexico Summit held last week in Cancun.
