Panel: Innovative datacentre financing: portfolio vs. ABS

03 Jun 2026
Discovery Stage, hosted by Schneider Electric
Green Zone

Portfolio financings allow developers to consolidate multiple single-asset financings into a unified structure, reflecting the sector's growing maturity and need for more scalable funding models. ABS provides a cost-effective route to refinance development debt by leveraging stable, long-term tenancy cash flows to access capital markets on favourable terms. 

This session will consider which funding option is best based on location, tenant leases and large-scale, multi-asset structures vs standalone projects.
