Infrastructure Investments
CKI has built a strong portfolio of infrastructure investments in the energy sector in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the UK. Primarily regulated assets, these investments have generated a steady cash flow and attractive returns for the Group. Together with Hongkong Electric, CKI is one of the biggest overseas infrastructure investors in Australia with investments in power distribution, gas distribution and water.

In December 2005, CKI sold a 49 per cent stake in the prime power assets of ETSA Utilities, Powercor and CitiPower to Spark Infrastructure Group, an infrastructure fund which was subsequently listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. CKI also owns about 8.5 per cent stake in Spark Infrastructure, as well as acts as a Manager of the fund.

CKI's investments in transportation infrastructure projects in Mainland China continue to generate stable profits.
