[Alpha Biz= Kim Jisun] Woori Financial Group announced on the 14th that it has jointly invested $150 million (approximately 210 billion KRW) with its strategic partner, Natixis (NATIXIS CIB), into two data centers in the United States. Natixis is an investment bank under the French financial group BPCE.
This investment is the first outcome following the strategic business agreement signed in June last year between Woori Financial and Natixis for the creation of a global private loan fund and mutual cooperation. As a result, Woori PE Asset Management has further strengthened its overseas fund management experience, while Woori Bank has been recognized for its global investment expertise.
The investment targets are hyperscale data centers in Arizona and Virginia, which have long-term leasing contracts with Amazon for 15 years.
