New Keppel Infrastructure Trust CEO wants to have his cake and eat it too

DON’T fix what’s not broken – that’s what Kevin Neo, the new chief executive officer of the trustee-manager of Keppel Infrastructure Trust (KIT), believes when it comes to the trust’s investment and growth strategy.

Appointed to the helm in October last year, Neo previously played a lead role in several major transactions as a senior member of the trustee-manager’s investment team.

From wind farms to a waste management company, and – soon – a bus transportation business, KIT’s portfolio might seem highly diversified. But they are all connected by the trust’s focus on sustainable urbanisation, the CEO said.
