Finance minister Enoch Godongwana has called on the Government Employee’s Pension Fund (GEPF) to consider “co-investing” in government infrastructure projects, as the country faces a deep shortfall in funding to address growing infrastructure needs.

Addressing the GEPF annual thought leadership conference on Thursday , Godongwana said that there are other opportunities for pension funds to co-invest with the government, especially in the delivery of infrastructure in the country.

He said that pension funds in particular sit on major resources, and investing in infrastructure would be mutually beneficial. “As the government, we are doing our part to create a conducive environment for the private sector to invest in the delivery of infrastructure. We acknowledge that the problem is not merely a lack of private sector desire to invest. The obstacle is often the insufficient supply of investible infrastructure projects.

“This centre of excellence will be a direct interface with private financial institutions for investments in critical government infrastructure programmes. We have also capitalised on the Infrastructure Fund to the tune of R 100 billion, over the next five years,” he said.
