Dorado Strategy, a long-standing investment firm with origins in luxury property development, has officially closed its third infrastructure fund, committing $300 million specifically for renewable energy projects across Latin America. The move highlights the firm’s growing shift from real estate into international infrastructure and energy markets.
Now in its third phase of expansion, Dorado Strategy’s latest fund signals a significant step forward in its diversification journey. Attracting considerable interest from both returning and new institutional investors, the fund boosts the firm’s infrastructure assets under management to $900 million, affirming its new status as a cross-sector investment powerhouse.
With demand for clean energy in Latin America on the rise, the $300 million allocation will focus on delivering impactful infrastructure across the region. Dorado Strategy sees this as an opportunity to apply its cross-border experience and sector expertise to accelerate vital energy projects.
“Latin America represents one of the most dynamic markets for energy infrastructure development globally,” said Daniel Boyko, Partner at Dorado Strategy. “Our decision to allocate these funds specifically to this region builds on our successful track record in both the United States and South America over the past six years. We’re confident that this focused investment approach will deliver both strong returns for our investors and meaningful impact for communities across the region.”
Having built its foundation on luxury developments in Los Angeles, Dorado Strategy began branching out into infrastructure and energy nearly six years ago, first focusing on US markets before extending its reach into South America.
This diversification strategy has yielded solid returns, with previous funds achieving notable success in energy and infrastructure development.
“We’ve carefully built our expertise in infrastructure and energy investing while maintaining our strength in luxury real estate,” noted Carolina Martinez, another Partner at Dorado Strategy. “This third fund represents not just growth in our investment capital, but the maturation of our capabilities in identifying and executing complex infrastructure projects that meet our financial and sustainability goals.”
The firm’s latest investment in Latin America will centre on renewable generation, transmission lines, and energy storage. Target projects will be of a medium to large scale and designed to support long-term energy transition targets in the region.
Deployment of funds will take place in countries where Dorado Strategy has already built local relationships, with a strong emphasis on collaborating with regional developers and adhering to country-specific regulations.
Environmental and social benefits are also a key priority. Dorado Strategy will focus on investments that deliver not only financial returns but also tangible improvements to sustainability and local livelihoods.
“Our approach to infrastructure investment has always balanced financial performance with meaningful impact,” Boyko. “The energy landscape in Latin America presents unique opportunities to invest in projects that not only deliver competitive returns but also advance critical sustainability goals and support local communities.”
