· Continued Net Asset Value ('NAV') growth over the half year of 6.3% to £1,371.4 (31 December 2015: £1,290.2 million) with NAV per share over the same period increasing 6.1% to 138.2 pence (31 December 2015: 130.2 pence)¹

· Half year 2016 fully covered cash dividend of 3.325 pence per share declared (30 June 2015: 3.225 pence per share)²

· Minimum target dividend for 2016 financial year of 6.65 pence per share and 2017 of 6.82 pence per share, an average annual increase of c.2.5%³

· IFRS profit before tax of £109.6 million (30 June 2015: £38.4 million)

· Total Shareholder Return since listing in 2006 of 139.2%, compared to 55.6% on the FTSE All Share over that same period⁴

· Following robust portfolio growth, new investments and a significantly oversubscribed £125 million capital raise in July 2016, c.36% increase in market capitalisation to £1.5 billion (30 June 2015: £1.1 billion)

Rupert Dorey, Chairman of International Public Partnerships Limited, said: "Predictable, growing returns continue to characterise our financial performance as the Company delivers further value growth over the first half of 2016."

"The significantly oversubscribed capital raise following the half year end demonstrates the continued demand and underlying value of our portfolio and the pipeline assets in which we are well-positioned to invest. The UK and global infrastructure market continues to provide diversified investment opportunities as we maintain our focus on the early phases of governments' procurement processes where we are a proven participant in the structuring and risk management of pipeline projects."

"We remain confident in the pipeline of both PFI/PPP and regulated assets and will continue to deploy our tried and tested approach to active asset management of our existing portfolio, which remains fundamental to our long-term success. With this, we look forward to maintaining our commitment to delivering durable, low-risk and inflation-linked returns to our shareholders."

Portfolio Performance

· Total of over £60 million in five investments and commitments in the electricity transmission, regulated utility, education and transport infrastructure sectors, enhancing diversification and maturity of the portfolio

· Portfolio return of 12.6% on a compounded annualised basis

· Continued investment into the £4.2 billion Thames Tideway project, taking the total so far invested to some £93.9 million with an additional £116.1 million committed

· Maximised pre-emptive rights to make value-enhancing follow-on investments in education and transport portfolio, in UK's Building Schools for Future and Australia's Gold Coast Light Rail projects

Outlook

· Outlook for the UK and global infrastructure sector continues to be buoyant

· Demand for assets in both the primary PPP/PFI space and regulated industries, and the associated stable and inflation-linked distributions the Company's investment in these generate, likely to remain high

· Strategic focus remains on sourcing off-market primary investments through the Investment Adviser

Chairman's Letter

Dear Shareholders,

It is very pleasing to be able to report to you again that your Company continued to perform strongly - the six months to June 2016 saw very robust underlying returns from the existing portfolio. We were also fortunate in being able to bring a number of new investments into the portfolio during the period, adding incremental value to your shareholding.

The combination of portfolio growth, new investment and the subscription of new capital saw the Company's market capitalisation reach over £1.5 billion shortly after the close of the half year, up from £1.1 billion at the equivalent time last year.

Dividend Growth

In line with its stated dividend target of 6.65 pence per share for the 2016 financial year, the Company declared a dividend of 3.325 pence per share for the six months to 30 June 2016. This represents c.3.1% growth over the prior corresponding period and is consistent with the c.2.5% average annual dividend growth that has been delivered to investors since the Company's inception over nine years ago. The ability to deliver consistent and growing income to investors is at the heart of the Company's investment strategy and we appreciate its importance to investors in increasingly volatile market conditions.

The Board has once again published a minimum dividend target, being 6.65 pence per share for 2016, and guidance of 6.82 pence per share for the 2017 dividend, an average increase of c.2.5% per annum, to give additional clarity to shareholders of our future intentions.¹

¹Future profit projection and dividends cannot be guaranteed. Projections are based on current estimates and may vary in future.

Operational and Portfolio Performance

The Company's portfolio of assets continued to perform well with revenues and cash receipts in line with management forecasts and levels of satisfaction remaining high amongst our public sector clients. As a result the cash flow and valuation performance of the Company's existing portfolio remained very healthy. Net Asset Value growth was strong during the period, increasing 6.3% to £1,371.4 million or 6.1% to 138.2 pence on a NAV per share basis.

The existing portfolio has continued to benefit from strong asset management of investments which we see as fundamental to the Company's overall long-term success. This approach not only encompasses larger-scale project issues such as ensuring that major construction schemes or project variations are tracking to schedule and budget, but the effective management of day-to-day relationships, such as ensuring that the head teachers in our schools are satisfied with the facility services being delivered and the terms of the concession contracts are being fulfilled.

Investment Activity and Capital Raising

Demand for infrastructure investment continues apace not only in the UK but internationally. The Company is well positioned and continues to prefer to focus its attention on the early phases of governments' procurement processes where it can be an active participant in the structuring and risk management of a project thereby deriving the best outcome for our investors from a project's inception. This is distinct from those whose focus is mainly to acquire investments in the secondary market where, typically, because of the competitive auction process, price is the key determinant and the project's investment parameters are dictated by the preceding owner/s. We believe our ability to originate and structure transactions so that the Company is an early stage investor into the majority of its investments is a major differentiating factor which creates real added value for our shareholders.

In this period we made investments and commitments to five infrastructure investments in the electricity transmission, regulated utility, education and transport infrastructure sectors totalling over £60.0 million. Additional commitments or investments of £91.2 million have also been made by the Company into additional infrastructure projects in the months since the end of the half year.

The largest investment during the period was the Company's commitment to the Westermost Rough offshore transmission project, where £26.8 million was invested. This is the Company's sixth such investment into what we believe to be one of the most attractive sectors in the UK at the current time.

The Company also continued to invest into the £4.2 billion Thames Tideway Project which will deliver a 25 kilometre 'super-sewer' under the River Thames in London. As at the date of this report the Company had invested some £76.0 million, with an additional £134.0 million committed by way of letter of credit to be drawn down during the construction phase of the project over the next year and a half.

The capital required to fund these new investments came from a mix of the Company's existing cash resources, its corporate debt facility and the proceeds from share issuance in the previous period.

The Company also conducted a capital raising in the first week of July 2016. Despite the turbulent market conditions that followed the Brexit decision, the offer closed significantly oversubscribed and the Company was able to enlarge the amount raised from the initial target of £75 million to £125 million. Pleasingly the placement was concluded at a very narrow discount to the market price on the day the raising was announced and was supported by a range of existing and new investors.

This new capital was immediately used to reduce the drawn balance of the Company's revolving credit facility and to invest into committed investment opportunities. We would like to thank all shareholders who participated in the offer for their support and welcome all of our new shareholders to the register.

Corporate Governance and Regulation

The Board has closely monitored market and political reactions following the referendum in respect of UK European Union (EU) Membership on 23 June 2016. While the decision to leave the EU will inevitably lead to uncertainty and associated market-related volatility (including but not limited to currency, credit and stock markets) the full impact of 'Brexit' is extremely difficult to forecast. We will continue to monitor the outcome and potential impacts.

We do however note that in our opinion the Company's current investments are not likely to be impacted in the long-term to a significant degree by Brexit as the counterparties to the concessions in which we invest will continue to use and require our services. Moreover there are no 'Brexit-related' clauses that would lead to the cessation of our concession agreements. Finally, in the context of the uncertainty created by the decision, the demand for assets in which the Company invests and the associated stable and inflation-linked distributions generated, is likely to continue to be high and we see this as broadly positive for the Company and its investor base.

The OECD proposals aimed at limiting the tax deductibility of interest charges on related and third party debt remain of particular relevance to the infrastructure sector. In May 2016, following the announcements made in the 2016 Budget, Her Majesty's Treasury invited a further consultation on the proposed regulations for corporate interest deductibility in the UK. The Company and its Investment Adviser have, in conjunction with industry participants and forums, submitted responses in this consultation. We are encouraged by movements in the latest proposals towards attempting to avoid unintended consequences on the infrastructure sector, however until detailed rules are finalised both in the UK and in other jurisdictions there remains a degree of uncertainty over any potential future impact on the Company. We will continue to work with our professional advisers and engage with industry groups as well as the relevant authorities throughout the consultation and implementation stage with an aim to mitigate unintended consequences where possible.

As reported in the 2015 Annual Report, in addition to its usual review of risks, the Board considered in more detail the cyber-risks that the Company may face - an increasingly topical area of risk for many businesses. The Board commissioned a review of the Company's security protocols in this respect which has found that controls are fit for purpose for the Company.

Going Concern

We have reviewed comprehensive cash flow forecasts, which are based on market data and past experience, and continue to believe, based on those forecasts and an assessment of the Group's committed banking facilities and available headroom, that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements of the Group on the going concern basis.

In arriving at our conclusion that the Group has adequate financial resources we were mindful that at the date of this report the Group has unrestricted cash balances of £49.5 million, restricted cash balances available for investments of £26.6 million and undrawn banking facilities of £158.4 million. Forecasts indicate continuing full compliance with associated banking covenants. Further details can be found on page 21.

Outlook

Despite uncertainty in some of the markets in which we operate the Company remains confident in its ability and that of its Investment Adviser to continue to identify and execute new investments in core markets to strengthen the portfolio further. This includes both infrastructure assets within the primary PPP/PFI space and regulated infrastructure assets.

Where new investment opportunities do arise the Company will continue to be selective in those acquisitions which it brings into the portfolio to ensure that they bring long-term value to shareholders.

Finally, and notwithstanding the comments above and the opportunities listed in more detail in the Financial and Operating Review, it should be noted that the Company's projected performance is not dependent upon making future investment commitments in order to deliver its projected returns. These can be delivered in the Company's view from its existing assets. Further investment opportunities will, first and foremost, be judged based on whether they add value and quality to the Company's existing portfolio.

Performance against key objectives during the year - Investor Returns

Profits and Distributions

Profit before tax for the six months to 30 June 2016 was £109.6 million (30 June 2015: £38.4 million) driven largely by the net change in fair value of investments, with earnings per share of 11.14 pence (30 June 2015: 4.71 pence).

Income from portfolio investments (investment income) including fair value movements, dividends and interest in the period was impacted accordingly, rising to £124.5 million (30 June 2015: £47.0 million). These returns were partially offset by operating expenses (including finance costs) of £10.7 million (30 June 2015: £9.5 million) and adverse movements on foreign currency contracts of £5.1m (30 June 2015: gain of £0.1m)

These results allowed the Company to deliver a dividend of 3.325 pence per share for the six months to 30 June 2016 (30 June 2015: 3.225 pence per share)

Total Shareholder Return

The Company's Total Shareholder Return (share price growth plus reinvested distributions) for investors since the IPO of the Company in November 2006 to 30 June 2016 has been 139.2%, compared to a total return on the FTSE All-Share index over the same period of 55.6% or 9.5% and 4.7% (respectively) on an annualised basis¹. The Company has exhibited relatively low levels of volatility compared to the market, as evidenced by the graph below which shows the Company's share price since IPO against the price performance of the major FTSE indices and the Company's NAV.

The build-up of NAV is derived from a discounted cash flow calculation to determine the fair value of investments plus the value of cash and other net assets held within the Company's consolidated group.

The key drivers of the change to the NAV between 31 December 2015 and 30 June 2016 are highlighted in the graph and described in more detail below.

Over the six months to 30 June 2016, government bond yields decreased in all countries the Company holds investments in, resulting in a positive impact on the NAV. This was partly offset by an increase in project premiums to ensure the project valuations continue to reflect current market pricing.

Sterling weakened considerably against the Australian, Canadian and United States' Dollars and the Euro over the half year to 30 June 2016, particularly after the announcement of the 'Brexit' decision, and this had a positive impact on the NAV. The most significant foreign exchange impact was seen in the valuation of the Company's Euro denominated investments.

Cash distributions were £29.2 million during the period and represent the cash elements of the dividend paid to shareholders in respect of the second half of the 2015 financial year.

The NAV Return of £37.8 million captures the following:

- Unwinding of the discount factor - the movement of the valuation date and the receipt of forecast distributions;

- Updated project forecasts - refinement of project model and macroeconomic assumptions to reflect current expectations of future cash flows and ensure that cash can be extracted from the underlying investments as early as reasonably possible; and

- Movements in the Company's working capital position.

Investment Valuation
Forecast future cash flows

The Company's investments are expected to exhibit (and historically have exhibited) predictable cash flows as the Company has a large degree of visibility over expected income from its current investments. The chart below sets out the Company's expectation for the evolution of investment receipts from its current portfolio (over the remaining life of current investments).

The majority of the receipts over the life of the concessions are investment income in the form of dividends or interest and principal payments from senior and subordinated debt investments.

The Company generally invests in infrastructure entities with finite lives (determined by concession or licence terms). As the remaining life of each of the Company's investments reduces, the Company's receipts in respect of that investment will represent return of capital as well as income. The line in the chart overleaf illustrates how, in the event that the Company never acquires any additional assets, nor raises any additional capital and other things being equal, the value of the Company's portfolio would reduce to zero over time¹. Equally however, any future acquisitions (or disposals) or changes to the projected cash flows of any investment (or the assumptions upon which they are based) will change this projection from time to time (although it can be expected to retain the same general amortising profile).

¹ The chart has been updated from previously published versions and now presents Investments at Fair Value i.e. the underlying value of the assets rather than NAV for fairer presentation.

Portfolio Performance and Return

The Company's investment portfolio is reviewed semi-annually by the Investment Adviser, and presented for approval by the Directors. The Directors' valuation of the portfolio, Investments at Fair Value, as at 30 June 2016 was £1,352.4 million, an increase of 12.6% since 31 December 2015. Investments at Fair Value Movements (£m)

[Chart can be found in PDF version of this document on the Company's website.]

The Portfolio Return of £49.2 million captures the following:

- Unwinding of the discount factor - the movement of the valuation date and the receipt of forecast distributions; and

In addition there was:

- A net reduction in discount rates across all jurisdictions in which the Company holds investments, leading to a £34.3 million increase in portfolio value;

- A reduction of £3.1 million following a reduction in the long-term Australian deposit rate assumptions and a one year delay in the step-up to the long-term deposit rate assumptions for all jurisdictions; and

- An increase of £43.1 million due to a significant weakening of Sterling against all four currencies the Company has exposure to.

The remaining movements relate to investments and the funding of affiliated entities totalling £74.0 million1 and project distributions of £46.2 million.

¹ Represents £56.2m of cash investments and £17.8m of funds advanced to affiliated entities to facilitate the Tideway investment immediately following the balance sheet date.

Macroeconomic assumptions

The Company reviews the macroeconomic assumptions underlying its forecasts on a regular basis and, following a thorough market assessment during the period, certain adjustments have been made to some of the assumptions used to derive the Company's portfolio valuation.

The key assumptions used as the basis for deriving the Company's portfolio valuation are summarised in the following table with further details provided in note 12. Across the portfolio the weighted average long-term inflation assumption as at 31 December 2015 was 2.57% (2014: 2.55%) and the weighted average deposit rate assumption was 3.11% (2014: 3.47%). The Net Asset Valuation Section above provides further details on the impact of these assumptions on the valuation during the period.

⁴The Company made its first US denominated investment during 2015. It had no USD exposure prior to this time. The investment is in fully yielding subordinated debt instruments and therefore not directly impacted by inflation, deposit and tax rates.

Discount rates

The discount rate used for valuing each investment is based on the appropriate long-term government bond yield and a risk premium. The risk premium takes into account risks and opportunities associated with each project (including location, phase of operation/construction etc.).

The majority of the Company's portfolio (85.9%) is comprised of investments where the Company only holds the Risk Capital in the underlying projects. The remainder of the portfolio (14.1%) is comprised of investments where the Company holds both the Risk Capital and the senior debt. In order to provide investors with a greater level of transparency, the Company publishes both a Risk Capital weighted average discount rate and a portfolio weighted average discount rate across all investments including senior debt interests.

The current discount rates used by the Company are provided in the table. These rates need to be considered against the assumptions and projections upon which the Company's anticipated cash flows are based.

Care needs to be exercised if the Company's average discount rates are to be compared with those of similar companies. In the Company's view comparisons of average discount rates between competitor investment portfolios or funds is only meaningful if there is a comparable level of confidence in the quality of forecast cash flows (and assumptions) the rates are applied to; the risk and return characteristics of different investment portfolios are understood; and the depth and quality of asset management employed to manage risk and deliver expected returns are identical across the compared portfolios. As such assumptions are unlikely to be homogenous, and a focus on average discount rates without an assessment of these and other factors could be misleading.

¹Risk Capital includes both project level equity and subordinated debt.

Government bond rates

In the table above the Company has provided an analysis of the weighted average government bond rate used in calculating the discount rate. It should be noted that the nominal (i.e. non-inflation linked) bond rate has been used in this calculation. The Company considers, however, that investors may also find a comparison with inflation adjusted government bond rates beneficial. This is the case due to the significant level of inflation linkage inherent in the Company's anticipated cash flows.

		30 June 2016		31 December 2015		Movement (December 2015 - June 2016)
Country	Nominal		Real	Nominal	Real	Nominal	Real
UK	2.05%		(0.89%)	2.33%	(0.76%)	(0.28%)	(0.13%)
Australia	2.96%		0.92%	3.29%	1.00%	(0.33%)	(0.08%)
Europe¹	1.35%		(0.49%)	1.73%	(0.14%)	(0.38%)	(0.35%)
Canada	1.96%		0.50%	2.20%	0.55%	(0.24%)	(0.05%)
US	2.52%		0.89%	2.99%	1.18%	(0.47%)	(0.29%)
Portfolio weighted average	2.00%		(0.61%)	2.31%	(0.44%)	(0.31%)	(0.17%)

Real (i.e. inflation adjusted) bond rates are included in the table below. Using these real rates on a weighted average basis leads to a 'real' portfolio rate of (0.61%) with the difference between the 'real' and 'nominal' rates reflecting in theory the implied rates of future expected inflation. In some countries this is higher than those currently being assumed to calculate the Company's NAV. This information is provided to enable investors to make approximate comparisons of the projected return of the Company with that available from government index linked bonds. It should be noted that any such comparison can only be estimated due in part to the fact that the Company's cash flows are not fully linked to inflation and the Company's cash flows already assume a core level of inflation as set out in the section headed Macroeconomic assumptions on page 13.

¹Includes Belgium, Germany, Ireland, and Italy. Note estimates only for Belgium and Ireland as no index linked bonds available.

Portfolio level assumptions underlying NAV calculation

The Company is aware that there are subtle differences in approach to the valuation of portfolios of investments among different infrastructure funds. To clarify the Company's position in this regard its key cash flow inputs and broad valuation principles include that:

- Key macroeconomic variables (outlined in the section above) continue to be applicable

- The contracts under which payments are made to the Company and its subsidiaries remain on track and are not terminated before their contractual expiry date

- Where deductions are suffered under such contracts they are fully passed down to subcontractors

- Where possible lifecycle costs/risks are not borne by the Company but are passed down to a third party such as a facilities management contractor

- Cash flows from and to the Company's subsidiaries and the infrastructure asset owning entities in which it has invested will be made and are received at the times anticipated

- Where assets are in construction they are either completed on time or any costs of delay are borne by the contractors not the Company

- Where the operating costs of the Company or the infrastructure asset owning entities in which it has invested are fixed by contract such contracts are performed, and where such costs are not fixed, that they remain within projected budgets

- Where the Company or the infrastructure asset owning entities in which it has invested owns the residual property value in an asset that the projected amount for this value is realised

Impact of Changes in Key Macroeconomic Variables to 30 June 2016 NAV 138.2p per Share

[Chart can be found in PDF version of this document on the Company's website.]

Discount rates

The Company's approach to determining the discount rate is described in detail above. Assuming all other things are equal, a reduction of 1% to the underlying project discount rates would increase the 30 June 2016 NAV per share by 16.3 pence. Should the underlying project discount rates increase by 1% the NAV per share would decrease by 13.8 pence.

Inflation

In an environment where investors are increasingly focused on achieving long-term real rates of return on their investments, inflation protection is an important consideration for the Company. At 31 December 2015, the majority of assets in the portfolio had some degree of inflation linkage and, in aggregate, the weighted return of the portfolio would be expected to increase by 1% per annum in response to a 0.75% per annum inflation increase across the whole portfolio over the currently assumed rates.

Where actual inflation is higher or lower than the assumed levels, it can be expected to impact on the Company's actual future cash flow in a correspondingly positive or negative manner other things being equal. If the underlying project inflation rates were to increase by 1% per annum evenly across the portfolio there would be an 11.4 pence increase to the NAV per share. Conversely, if the rates were to decrease by 1% per annum there would be a 10.1 pence decrease to the NAV per share.

Forecasting the impact of possible future inflation/deflation on projected returns and NAV in isolation cannot be relied on as an accurate guide to the future performance of the Company as actual inflation is unlikely to follow any of these scenarios exactly and in any case, many other factors and variables will combine to determine what actual future returns are available. The analysis provided above should therefore be treated as being indicative only and not as providing any form of profit or dividend forecast.

Foreign exchange

The Company has a geographically diverse portfolio and therefore revenues are subject to foreign exchange rate risk. Should the assumed exchange rates increase by 10% per annum this could be anticipated to lead to a 4.0 pence increase in the NAV per share while a 10% per annum reduction in the exchange rates would result in a 4.0 pence decrease in NAV per share. Short-term fluctuation in foreign exchange rates are managed through currency forward contracts.

Deposit rates

The long-term weighted average deposit rate assumption across the portfolio is 3.00% per annum. While operating cash balances tend to be low given the structured nature of the investments, project finance structures typically include reserve accounts to mitigate certain costs and therefore variations to deposit rates may impact the portfolio. During the period the Company reduced the deposit rates it was assuming for its Australian assets from 4.50% to 3.00%. Taking this slight change into account and all else being equal, a 1% per annum increase in the underlying deposit rates could be anticipated to lead to a 1.5 pence increase in the NAV per share and a 1% per annum decrease in deposit rate to a 1.4 pence reduction in the NAV per share.

Tax rates

The Company has a geographically diverse portfolio and therefore post-tax investment cash inflows are impacted by tax rates across all relevant jurisdictions. Should the assumed tax rates increase by 1% per annum this could be anticipated to lead to a 0.8 pence decrease in the NAV per share while a 1% per annum reduction in the tax rates could be anticipated to lead to a 0.8 pence increase in NAV per share.

Under UK group tax loss relief rules, losses within the UK group companies can be, subject to UK tax law, offset against taxable profits in other UK group companies (including controlled project entities). This group tax loss relief can reduce the overall tax charge across the portfolio and potentially reduce taxable profits substantially below the levels currently modelled by the Company. The Company has taken a conservative approach to the valuation of future tax losses and, to date, has not incorporated these into the NAV.

Project lifecycle spend

Over a project's lifecycle there is a process of renewal required to keep the physical asset fit for use and at the standard required of it under the agreement with the occupying public sector body. The proportion of total cost that is lifecycle spend will depend on the nature of the asset. In order to enhance the certainty around cash flows, around 93.53% of the Investments at Fair Value comprise investments that have been structured such that lifecycle cost risk is taken by a subcontractor for a fixed price (isolating equity investors from such downside risk). As a result, the impact of any changes to the Company's lifecycle cost profile is relatively small. A 10% increase in lifecycle costs would lead to a 0.6 pence reduction in NAV per share. A 10% decrease in lifecycle costs would lead to a 0.6 pence increase in NAV per share.

¹Net cashflows from operations are detailed further in the financial statements on page 30.

The Company's net cash reduced by £43.2 million from 31 December 2015 to £29.2 million reflecting new investments as well as dividends paid, offset by positive operating cash inflows and drawdowns on the corporate debt facility.

Cash inflows from the Company's portfolio of investments increased by £8.4 million to in comparison with the corresponding period in 2015. The increase can be attributed to both the ongoing maturity of the Company's assets and the positive impact of recent investments.

Recurring operating costs increased from £6.8 million to £7.7 million at 30 June 2016 as a result of higher management fees (in line with the increase to the Company's NAV) and other cost movements, as outlined in the accompanying table. Net financing costs are in line with the comparable period in 2015 since the majority of cash outflows associated with the higher drawn balance at 30 June 2015 were incurred in the second half of the year. Non-recurring operating costs in the period to 30 June 2016 relate principally to one-off transaction costs incurred on new investments.

New investments in the period are detailed in note 12 of the financial statements and were funded from a mix of the Company's existing cash resources, its corporate debt facilities and the proceeds from share issuance. To ensure the Company satisfied its commitment to invest £17.8 million into the Tideway project on 1 July 2016, cash was drawn on the corporate debt facility and transferred prior to the balance sheet date. This transfer is shown as "funds advanced to affiliated entities".

Dividends paid in the period of £29.2 million (30 June 2015: £23.8 million) were in respect of the six-month period ended 31 December 2015.

The Board seeks to mitigate and manage risks relating to the Company through continual review, policy setting and enforcement of contractual obligations. It also regularly monitors the investment environment and the management of the Group's portfolio.

The Company's approach to risk is set out in the Risk Report of the 31 December 2015 Annual Report and Financial Statements (pages 36-44), the Risk Report includes an overview of the principle risks and their mitigation. Risk Factors are also detailed further in the Company's last Prospectus (the Placing, Open Offer and Offer for Subscription and Placing Programme Prospectus published on 19 October 2015). These risks and uncertainties are expected to remain relevant to the Company for the next six months of its financial year and include (but are not limited to):

Inflation risk - Revenues and expenditures of project entities with respect to infrastructure assets are generally partially or wholly subject to indexation and an assumption is made that inflation will increase at a long-term rate. The Group's ability to meet targets may be adversely or positively impacted by inflation;

Foreign exchange risk - The Group has exposures to foreign currencies and therefore exposure to exchange rate fluctuations

Credit and counterparty risks - The risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group;

Liquidity risk - The ability to successfully access suitable financial resources in the debt, equity and related financial markets;

Contract risk - The ability of counterparties to operate contracts to the detriment of the Company and the risk of default under contract whether by the Company, its subsidiaries or it or their counterparties; and

Other external risks - Includes the political and regulatory risks (including tax and accounting policies and practices) associated with the Company and its projects and changes in the competitive environment which may have an adverse impact on the Group. In particular, actions that may be taken in light of the OECD's Action plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting ('BEPS') may lead to fundamental changes to international tax structures and may have knock on consequences for domestic standards as well.

The Board considers and reviews the risks that the Company is exposed to on a regular basis.

Performance against Strategic Priorities - 1. Active Asset Management
Investment cash flow received from the Company's portfolio of 122 investments has continued to perform in line with the Company's expectations. Ensuring that the Company's assets are available for use and are performing in accordance with contractual expectations is a critical task for the Company and its service providers.

The Investment Adviser, on behalf of the Company, closely monitors the relationship between service providers and public sector clients. It is actively involved in the ongoing management of assets to ensure that performance standards are being met. In addition to these day-to-day activities, the Investment Adviser works with public sector clients on assignments as they arise.

These capabilities were tested in March when the Company's investment in the Diabolo Rail project was closed due to the horrifying terrorist activities at the Belgium National Airport, Zaventem, to which the project is linked. While our facilities were largely unaffected physically, as would be expected in such circumstances, rail services to the airport were suspended while security personnel and the government focussed on the atrocity. Following this the Investment Manager has worked with the Airport and other local authorities to reinstate services to the airport as quickly as possible. Although it is a short time since the incident, passengers have continued to use the service and the Company does not expect there to be any significant impact on the financial position of the project.

During the first half of 2016, our public sector clients commissioned c 340 variations resulting in over £4.3 million of additional works at the project level. All variations were overseen by the Investment Adviser as part of the day-to-day asset management activities it undertakes in conjunction with the project facilities manager and the public sector client. Variations ranged in size from a few hundred pounds to over £1 million and demonstrate the value and flexibility of PFI/PPP contracts to respond to the changing requirements of public sector clients.

Construction work continues on the New Schools PPP Project in Australia (Victorian Schools 2). The Project comprises 15 new build schools across twelve different green-field sites in outer metropolitan Melbourne. Construction on the project is split into two tranches with the first eight schools due to be completed by 1 January 2017 and the remainder by 1 January 2018. Overall progress is on schedule, with the design submissions for the Tranche 1 schools nearly complete, construction well advanced and design submissions for Tranche 2 underway.

Enabling works on the Thames Tideway Tunnel ('Tideway') continued during the period, preparing the 24 sites across London for the driving of the tunnel itself, with the most prominent piece of work taking place in the foreshore by Blackfriars Bridge. Pleasingly during the period main works construction has started slightly earlier than planned.

The Gold Coast Stage 2 project which will link the existing light rail system with the local heavy rail network and provide users with direct access to Brisbane has commenced. Design work is underway along with early enabling works.

Projects under construction as at 30 June 2016, all of which are currently on schedule for operational commencement are set out in the table below.

Asset	Location	Construction Completion Date	Defects Completion Year	Status	% of Fair Value of Investment
Priority School Building Aggregator Programme - five batches	UK	2018	2019	On Schedule	3.32%

Gold Coast Light Rail Stage Two¹	Australia	2018	2019	On Schedule	0.01%

¹ Project is currently funded via a letter of credit. Investment will be made at construction completion or, in the case of Tideway, over the course of construction.

Performance against Strategic Priorities - 2. Value-focused Portfolio Development
During the six months to 30 June 2016 the Company made further investment or commitments of £60.0 million across five projects. The projects acquired were either sourced by the Investment Adviser from project inception (i.e. in response to an initial government procurement process) or were acquired by way of further investment into the Company's existing assets. These methods of procurement remain the Company's preferred route to market as they necessarily avoid investment in the open secondary market which remains very competitive. Details of acquisitions are provided below.

Westermost Rough offshore transmission project ('OFTO')

In February 2016, Transmission Capital Partners, the consortium comprising the Company, Amber Infrastructure and Transmission Investment reached financial close for the long-term license and operation of its sixth UK offshore transmission project, Westermost Rough OFTO.

The Company made a £26.8 million investment for 100% of the equity and subordinated debt of the OFTO. The OFTO will connect a windfarm containing 35 turbines generating 6MW located 8km off the coast of Yorkshire to the onshore grid network, providing enough electricity to power around 150,000 UK homes.

Thames Tideway Tunnel

In the six months to 30 June 2016 the Company invested £17.1 million into the Tideway project making a further £17.8 million contribution following the period end. As at the date of this report the Company had an additional c.£116.1 million to be invested by early 2018 (currently supported by a letter of credit) of which c.£35.2 million is expected to be committed during the remainder of 2016.

As discussed above, during the period Tideway made good progress towards commencement of construction and Tideway recently announced a 35-year £700 million loan with the European Investment Bank in addition to the £1 billion in funding already in place.

Priority Schools Building Programme 'Aggregator'

During the period the Company invested £5.1 million into the fifth and final batch of schools being delivered through the Priority Schools Building Programme ('PSBP').

These projects use an innovative financing model based upon the establishment of a funding vehicle known as the 'Aggregator'. One of the key features of the Aggregator is the ability to warehouse loans and thereby aggregate total financing requirements across all five schools batches. The Aggregator is financed by a Consortium including the Company along with Aviva Investors and the European Investment Bank providing senior debt.

Additional investment in Wolverhampton Building Schools for the Future ('BSF') project

During the period, the Company acquired an additional 72% investment in the Wolverhampton BSF concession, growing the Company's existing 10% investment in the project to 82%.

The Company invested £7.2 million in the project with two secondary schools, Heath Park Academy in the Fallings Park area and St. Matthias School in the Wardle area of Wolverhampton. Both schools are a mixture of new build and refurbished pre-existing buildings. Upon completion, the schools will provide greatly enhanced education facilities for over 2,000 secondary school students. The project was acquired from Carillion Private Finance.

Additional investment in Gold Coast Light Rail project

The Company committed to make a further approximately AUD$7 million (c.£3.8 million) investment into a 7.3km extension to the Gold Coast Light Rail project in Queensland, Australia. The commitment is supported by a letter of credit provided by the Company.

The Company secured a 26.7% equity stake in the extension alongside Plenary Group, Marubeni Group, Palisade, Keolis and Aveng Group. Construction is expected to reach completion at the end of 2017, with operations commencing in early 2018 in time for the opening of the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in April.

Halton Place Building Schools for the Future

In July, following the half year end, the Company purchased a 22.5% share of the subordinated debt and equity cashflows of HTP Grange Limited, a Building Schools for the Future (BSF) project located in Halton, Cheshire for £1.1 million.

Building Schools for the Future portfolio

Following the half year end, in July the Company committed to invest up to £72.3 million to acquire investment interests in a total of ten schemes. The investment opportunity was secured through pre-emption rights that INPP gained as part of its ownership of Building Schools for the Future Investments LLP ("BSFI"). INPP acquired BSFI from the Department of Education and Partnerships UK in August 2011.

Owing to its established position in UK education infrastructure, the Company already holds 10% interests in seven of the Balfour Beatty's investments in question, and as a result of the transaction will increase its stake to 90% in each scheme post-acquisition. The Company will at the same time acquire new interests in a further three BSF schemes previously under Balfour Beatty's ownership.

Performance against Strategic Priorities - 3. Efficient Financial Management

The Company seeks to generate dividends to investors that are paid from operating cash flow. For the six months ended 30 June 2016 the cash dividend paid to investors was 1.3 times covered by net operating cash flow and the Company remains confident that it will be able to grow dividends in the future.

The Company continued to make use of its £300 million corporate debt facility in the period, drawing £23.7 million in cash as short term funding for the investment in BSF Wolverhampton 2 and to finance its commitment to invest £17.8 million in the Tideway project on 1 July 2016.

In July 2016 the Group successfully raised £125 million of additional capital which was used in part to repay the cash drawn balance outstanding on the corporate debt facility. As at the date of this report, the corporate debt facility was £nil cash drawn, £141.6 million was issued as letters of credit and £158.4 million remained undrawn or unutilised and available for investment in new and existing projects until May 2018. The facility is forecast to continue in full compliance with the associated banking covenants. In addition, at the date of this report, the Group had cash balances of £76.1million available for future investment. The Company also continues to fully cover costs and distributions from underlying cash flows from investments.

It remains the Company's policy not to have long-term corporate level debt and it is anticipated that to the extent that the corporate facility is drawn to fund acquisitions, this would be a short-term arrangement and equity funding, by means of a capital raising, would be sought to repay outstanding debt as soon as practicable. The corporate debt facility is currently subject to renewal in May 2018.

Outlook

Current Market Environment and Future Opportunities

Overall the Company continues to have a positive market outlook. Despite the uncertainties surrounding Brexit, Government support for private sector investment in infrastructure in the UK and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates continues to feature as a high public priority. Competition continues to be very high for freely marketable operational assets which are trading in the secondary market resulting in continued price inflation for those investors having to purchase in this way. As we have highlighted to you before, the Company's focus continues to be either on investments originated directly from the public sector rather than via the secondary market; or through the secondary market but usually only where the Company has an in-built competitive advantage through holding pre-existing pre-emption rights.

In addition rather than see pricing pressure in the unrestricted secondary market as a negative we are in fact encouraged as these transactions provide us with a great deal of comfort around the value of the Company's existing assets and the market's appetite for infrastructure more generally including being a firmly established class of investment asset in its own right.

Currently, the Investment Adviser has identified a significant investment pipeline for the Company. In addition to these potential investments the Company and its Investment Adviser have a larger number of transactions under review, which are at an earlier stage of development.

Current Pipeline

Overall, the Company remains positive about its prospects, both in terms of the performance of its existing investments and the opportunity to add high quality investments to the portfolio during the remainder of 2016.

In addition to the commitment to Tideway, the Investment Adviser has a pipeline of other potential investment opportunities that are at an earlier stage of development, which subject to further review and will be progressed as investment opportunities for the Company. Key areas of current activity within the Company and/or its Investment Adviser (or associates) include:

- Continued activities in the area of UK offshore transmission

- Enhanced access to US P3 opportunities, particularly through the relationship with Amber/Hunt

- Other UK and European primary investment opportunities (for instance in the healthcare and judicial sectors)

- Acquisition of additional investments in projects where the Company already has an investment. Typically these will arise under pre-emption and similar rights

- The growing range of opportunities in Northern Europe, Australia and New Zealand which conform to the existing risk profile within the Company's portfolio

- Appropriately priced proposals from third parties seeking to dispose of projects meeting the Company's investment criteria which have synergies with the Company's existing portfolio

Selected specific current opportunities identified by the Investment Adviser are outlined in the table below.

Notwithstanding the projects listed above, it should be noted that the Company's performance is not dependent upon making additional investments in order to deliver its projected returns. Further investment opportunities will be judged by their anticipated contribution to overall portfolio returns.

The above represents potential opportunities currently under review by the Investment Adviser (and its associates) including current bids, preferred bidder opportunities and the estimated value of opportunities to acquire additional investments including under pre-emption/first refusal rights. There is no certainty these will translate to actual investment opportunities for the Company. The value referenced in relation to the pre-emption opportunities represents the estimated potential investment value which reflects the current estimate of the total likely acquisition value at that time. In relation to opportunities where the current estimated gross value of the relevant project is given (which includes an estimate of both debt and equity), the estimates provided are not necessarily indicative of the eventual acquisition price for, or the value of, any interest that may be acquired.

The condensed set of financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting';

The interim financial and operating review includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.7R (indication of important events during the first six months and description of principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year); and

Chairman Director

Report to International Public Partnerships Limited
Introduction
We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly Financial Report for the six months ended 30 June 2016 which comprises the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Condensed Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and the related Notes 1 to 20. We have read the other information contained in the half yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with guidance contained in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK and Ireland) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

Directors' Responsibilities

The half-yearly Financial Report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the Directors. The Directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly Financial Report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

As disclosed in Note 1, the Annual Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union.

Our Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the Half-yearly Financial Report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly Financial Report for the six months ended 30 June 2016 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

Notes to the Condensed set of Financial Statements (unaudited)
Six months ended 30 June 2016

1. Basis of Preparation

International Public Partnerships Limited is a closed ended authorised investment company incorporated in Guernsey under The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The address of the registered office is given in the inside back cover. The nature of the Group's operations and its principal activities are set out in pages 2 to 4.

These financial statements are presented in pounds Sterling as this is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group ('Parent and consolidated subsidiary entities') operates and represents the functional currency of the Parent and all values are rounded to the nearest (£'000), except when otherwise indicated.

The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2015 included in this Half-yearly Financial Report is derived from the 31 December 2015 Annual Report and Financial Statements and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The auditors reported on those accounts: their report was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis, and did not contain a statement under section 263 (2) and (3) of The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.

Accounting policies

The annual financial statements of International Public Partnerships Limited are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as adopted by the European Union. The set of condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Half-yearly Financial Report have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, as they provide an update of previously reported information.

The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are followed in this set of condensed financial statements as applied in the Group's latest annual audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015. The new and revised IFRS and interpretations becoming effective in the period have had no impact on the accounting policies of the Group.

As disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015, the Directors determined that International Public Partnerships Limited is an investment entity as defined by IFRS 10 on the basis that:

a) it obtains funds from one or more investor(s) for the purpose of providing those investor(s) with investment management services;

b) it commits to its investors that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and

c) it measures and evaluates the performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis.

Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements consolidate only those subsidiaries that provide services relevant to its investment activities, such as management services, strategic advice and financial support to its investees. Subsidiaries that do not provide investment-related services are required to be measured at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

Going concern

The Directors have reviewed comprehensive cash flow forecasts prepared by management. Based on those forecasts and an assessment of the Group's ('Parent and consolidated subsidiary entities') committed banking facilities, they have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements of the Group on a going concern basis.

In arriving at their conclusion that the Group has adequate financial resources, the Directors were mindful that at the date of this report the Group has unrestricted cash balances of £49.5 million, restricted cash balances available for investments of £26.6 million and the Company's corporate debt facility of £300 million. Following the 30 June 2016 balance sheet date, in July 2016 the Group successfully raised £125 million of additional capital which was used in part to repay the cash drawn balance outstanding on the corporate debt facility. As at the date of this report, the corporate debt facility was £nil cash drawn, £141.6 million was issued as letters of credit and £158.4 million remained undrawn or unutillised and available for investment in new and existing projects until May 2018. The facility is forecast to continue in full compliance with the associated banking covenants. The Company also continues to fully cover costs and distributions from underlying cash flows from investments.

2. Significant Judgements and Estimates

Service entities and consolidation group

Following the adoption of IFRS 10 Investment Entity Amendments, the condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and service entities controlled by the Company up to 30 June 2016. Typically a service entity provides management services, strategic advice and financial support to investee entities. Judgment is therefore required in assessing which entities meet these definitional requirements. The Directors have reviewed and assessed the criteria applied in the assessment of services entities based on the guidance in place as at 30 June 2016 and are satisfied with the resulting conclusion.

Fair valuation of investments at fair value through profit or loss

Fair values are determined using the income approach which discounts the expected cash flows at a rate appropriate to the risk profile of each asset. In determining the discount rate and relevant long-term government bond yields, tax risks, specific risks and the evidence of recent transactions are considered. Details of the valuation process and key sensitivities are provided in note 11.

3. Segmental Reporting

Based on a review of information provided to the chief operating decision makers, the Group has identified four reportable segments based on the geographical risk within the Group. The factors used to identify the Group's reportable segments are centred on the risk free rates and the maturity of the Infrastructure sector (particularly PFI/PPP) within each region. Further, foreign exchange and political risk are identified, as these also determine where resources are allocated. Management has concluded that the Group is currently organised into four reportable segments being UK, Europe (non UK), North America and Australia.

Revenue from investee entities, representing more than 10% of the Group's interest and dividend income approximates £6.0 million (June 2015: £9.8 million). Segmental profits in Europe, North America and Australia have increased in the period in part due to the impact of foreign exchange movements following the UK referendum on membership of the European Union in June 2016.

The Group currently has available a corporate debt facility of £300 million provided by Royal Bank of Scotland and National Australia Bank Limited. As at 30 June 2016, the cash drawn balance on the corporate debt facility was £23.7 million¹. The drawdowns on the facility are in the form of cash drawdowns and issuance of letters of credit. Cash drawdowns are used to fund the investments and the letter of credit drawdowns are used to back the Group's commitment to a future pipeline of cash investments.

The interest rate margin on the corporate debt facility is 175 basis points over Libor. The loan facility matures in May 2018 and is secured over the assets of the Group.

¹ At 30 June 2016, £23.7 million of the corporate debt facility was cash drawn, £159.4 million was issued as letters of credit and £116.9 million remained undrawn or unutilised.

Reconciliation of effective tax rate

The income tax credit above does not represent the full tax position of the entire Group as the investment returns received by the Company are net of tax payable at the underlying investee entity level. In accordance with the IFRS 10 investment entity amendments, underlying investment entity tax is not consolidated within these financial statements. Total forecasted corporation tax payable by the Group's underlying investments is £753 million over their full concession lives.

10. Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is based on the following data:

	Six months ended 30 June 2016 £'000s	Six months ended 30 June 2015 £'000s
Earnings for the purposes of basic and diluted earnings per share being net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent	110,393	39,416

Number of shares	Number	Number
Weighted average number of Ordinary Shares for the purposes of basic and diluted earnings per share	991,001,925	836,373,591
Basic and diluted (pence)	11.14	4.71

The denominator for the purposes of calculating both basic and diluted earnings per share is the same, as the Group has not issued any share options or other instruments that would cause dilution.

11. Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised at the point of execution of the contracts. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the instrument expire or the asset is transferred and the transfer qualifies for derecognition in accordance with IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expired. Specific financial asset and liability accounting policies are provided below.

11.1 Financial assets

The carrying value of all financial assets and liabilities are considered to approximate their fair value.

11.3 Financial risk and management objectives

The Group's objective in managing risk is the creation and protection of shareholder value. Risk is inherent in the Group's activities, but it is managed through a process of ongoing identification, measurement and monitoring, subject to risk limits and other controls. The process of risk management is critical to the Group's continuing profitability. The Group is exposed to market risk (which includes currency risk, interest rate risk and inflation risk), credit risk and liquidity risk arising from the financial instruments it holds. The Group's Investment Adviser is responsible for identifying and controlling risks. The Board of Directors supervises the Investment Adviser and is ultimately responsible for the overall risk management of the Group.

The Group's risk management framework and approach is set out within the Strategic Report in the 31 December 2015 annual financial statements.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market variables such as changes in inflation, foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

Inflation Risk

The majority of the Group's cash flows from underlying investments are linked to inflation indices. Changes in inflation rates can have a positive or negative impact on the Group's cash flows from investments. The long-term inflation assumptions applied in the Group's valuation of investments at fair value through profit or losses are disclosed in the fair value hierarchy section 11.4.

The Group's portfolio of investments has been developed in anticipation of continued inflation at or above the levels used in the Group's valuation assumptions over the long term. Where inflation is at levels below the assumed levels, investment performance may be impaired. The level of inflation linkage across the investments held by the Group varies and is not consistent.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows from underlying investments therefore impacting the value of investments at fair value through profit or loss. The Group has limited exposure to interest rate risk as the underlying borrowings within the investee entities are either hedged through interest rate swap arrangements or are fixed rate loans. It is generally a requirement under a PFI/PPP concession that any borrowings are matched to the life of the concession. Hedging activities are aligned with the period of the loan, which also mirrors the concession period and are highly effective. The Group's corporate facility is unhedged on the basis it is utilised as an investment bridging facility and drawn for a relatively short period of time. Therefore, the Group is not significantly exposed to cash flow risk due to changes in interest rates over its variable rate borrowings. Interest income on bank deposits held at underlying investment level is included within the fair value of investment. Sensitivity analysis showing the impact of variations in the interest income deposit rate on fair value of investment is shown in section 11.5.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies and therefore is exposed to exchange rate fluctuations. Currency risk arises in financial instruments that are denominated in a foreign currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured. The carrying amounts of the Group's foreign currency denominated monetary financial instruments at the reporting date are set out in the table below:

	30 June 2016 £'000s	31 December 2015 £'000s
Cash
Euro	628	871
Canadian Dollar	1,285	1,107
Australian Dollar	12	11
US Dollar	1,865	3
	3,790	1,992
Current receivables
Euro receivables	386	393
US Dollar receivables	235	-
	621	393
Investments at fair value through profit or loss
Euro	227,916	202,968
Canadian Dollar	40,888	34,819
Australian Dollar	93,633	85,370
US Dollar	36,487	32,204
	398,924	355,361
Total	403,335	357,746

The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the risk of short-term volatility in foreign exchange on significant investment returns from overseas investments.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of dealing only with creditworthy counterparties at the underlying entity level. PFI/PPP and similar concessions are entered into with government, quasi government, other public or equivalent low risk bodies.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Group would encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group invests in relatively illiquid investments (mainly non-listed equity and loans). As a closed-ended investment vehicle there are no automatic redemption of capital rights. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities and by continuously monitoring the forecast and actual cash flows. Cash flow forecasts assume full availability of underlying infrastructure to the public sector entities. Failure to maintain assets available for use or operating in accordance with pre-determined performance standards may entitle the public sector to stop (wholly or partially) paying the income that the Group has projected to receive.

The Directors review the underlying performance of each investment on a quarterly basis, allowing asset performance to be monitored. Contractual mechanisms also allow for significant pass-down of unavailability and performance risk to sub-contractors.

11.4 Fair value hierarchy

All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

- Level 1 - Quoted market prices in an active market (that are unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities

- Level 2 - Valuation techniques (for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable)

- Level 3 - Valuation techniques (for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable).

During the period there were no transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 categories.

Level 1:

The Group has no financial instruments classified as level 1.

Level 2:

This category includes derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, RPI swaps, currency forward contracts and investments at fair value through profit or loss. As at 30 June 2016, the Group's Level 2 financial instruments include currency forward contracts amounting to a liability of £3.4 million (December 2015: asset of £1.7 million). Financial instruments classified as Level 2 have been valued using models whose inputs are observable in an active market (spot exchange rates, yield curves, interest rate curves). Valuations based on observable inputs include financial instruments such as swaps and forward contracts which are valued using market standard pricing techniques where all the inputs to the market standard pricing models are observable.

Level 3:

This category consists of investments in equity and loan instruments in underlying unconsolidated subsidiary entities and affiliates which are classified at fair value through profit or loss. At 30 June 2016, the fair value of financial instruments classified within Level 3 totalled £1,352.4 million (December 2015: £1,201.1 million). Financial instruments are classified within Level 3 if their valuation incorporates significant inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). A valuation input is considered observable if it can be directly observed from transactions in an active market, or if there is compelling external evidence demonstrating an executable exit price.

Valuation process

Valuations are the responsibility of the Board of Directors of the Company. The valuation of unlisted equity and debt investments is performed on a quarterly basis by the Investment Adviser and reviewed by the senior members of the Investment Adviser. The valuations are also subject to quality assurance procedures performed by the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to relevant project financial models and market information. In addition, the accuracy of the computation is tested. The latest valuation is also compared with the valuations in the preceding semi-annual and annual reporting periods. The senior members of the Investment Adviser consider the appropriateness of the valuation methods and inputs. On a quarterly basis, after the checks above have been performed the Investment Adviser presents the valuation results to the Audit and Risk Committee. This includes a discussion of the major assumptions used in the valuations, with an emphasis on the more significant investments. Any changes in valuation methods and assumptions are discussed and agreed with the Company's Audit and Risk Committee.

Valuation methodology

The valuation methodologies used are primarily based on discounting the underlying investee entities' future projected net cash flows at appropriate discount rates. Valuations are also reviewed against recent market transactions for similar assets in comparable markets observed by the Group or Investment Adviser and adjusted where appropriate.

Projected net future cash flows

Cash flow forecasts for each underlying investment are generated through detailed project specific financial models. Financial models forecast the project related cash flows for the full term of the underlying service concession. The cash flows included in the forecasts used to determine fair value are typically fixed under contracts however there are certain variable cash flows which are based on management estimation. These models also forecast the dividend, shareholder loan interest payments, capital repayments and senior debt repayments (where applicable) expected from the underlying investments. Key macroeconomic inputs and assumptions utilised in projecting the Group's net future cash flows include:

	UK	Europe Non UK	North America	Australia
Inflation	2.75%	1% in 2016; 2% there after	2.00%	2.50%
Long-term tax	20.00% - 18.00%	12.50% - 33.99%	26.50% - 27.00%	30.00%
Foreign exchange rates	N/A	1.14	1.36-1.76	1.91
Long-term deposit rates	3.00%	3.00%	3.00%	3.00%

Discount rate

The discount rate used for valuation of each investment is the aggregate of the following:

- The six-month average yield on a government bond with a remaining maturity matched as closely to the remaining life of the project as possible, issued by the national government for the location of the asset ('government bond yield');

- A premium to reflect the inherent greater risk in investing in infrastructure assets over government bonds;

- A further premium to reflect the state of maturity of the asset with a larger premium applied to immature assets and/or assets in construction and/or to reflect any current asset specific or operational issues. Typically this risk premium will reduce over the life of any asset as an asset matures, its operating performance becomes more established, and the risks associated with its future cash flows decrease; and

- A further adjustment reflective of market-based transaction valuation evidence for similar assets.

Over the period, the weighted average government bond yield decreased by 0.31%. This was offset by a 0.15% increase in the weighted average project premium to reflect current market pricing.

Valuation Methodology	30 June 2016	31 December 2015	Movement
Weighted Average Government Bond Rate	2.00%	2.31%	(0.31%)
Weighted Average Project Premium	5.37%	5.22%	0.15%

Capital risk management

The Group seeks to efficiently manage its financial resources to ensure that it is able to continue as a going concern while providing improved returns to shareholders through the management of the debt and equity balances. The capital structure consists of the Group's corporate facility and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings. The Group aims to deliver its objective by investing available cash and using leverage whilst maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet on-going expenses and dividend payments.

The Group's Investment Adviser reviews the capital structure on a semi-annual basis. As part of this review, the Investment Adviser considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.

17. Related Party Transactions

During the period, Group companies entered into certain transactions with related parties that were not members of the Group but were related parties by reason of being in the same group as Amber Infrastructure Group Holdings Limited, which is the ultimate holding company of the Investment Adviser, Amber Fund Management Limited ('AFML').

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement ('IAA'), AFML was appointed to provide investment advisory services to the Group including advising the Group as to the strategic management of its portfolio of investments.

AFML is a subsidiary company of Amber Infrastructure Group Holdings Limited ('Amber Group'), in which Mr G Frost is a Director and also a shareholder.

Mr G Frost is also a Director of International Public Partnerships Limited (the 'Company'); International Public Partnerships Lux 1 Sarl; (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company); and the majority of other companies in which the Group indirectly has an investment. The transactions with the Amber Group are considered related party transactions under IAS 24 'Related Party Disclosures'.

The Director's fees for Mr G Frost's directorship of the Company are paid to his employer, Amber Infrastructure Limited.

The amounts of the transactions in the period that were related party transactions are set out in the table below:

		Related party expense in the Income Statement			Amounts owing to related parties in the Balance Sheet
	For the six months to 30 June 2016 £'000s		For the six months to 30 June 2015 £'000s		At 30 June 2016 £'000s	At 31 December 2015 £'000s
International Public Partnerships GP Limited	7,439		6,485	7,439		6,987
Amber Fund Management Limited¹	844		640	184		231
Total	8,283		7,125	7,623		7,218

¹Represents amounts paid to related parties to acquire or make investments or advisory fees associated with investments which are subsequently recorded in the balance sheet.

Investment advisory fee / profit share payable during the period is calculated as follows:

For existing construction assets:

- 1.2% per annum of gross asset value of investments bearing construction risk

For existing fully operational assets:

- 1.2% per annum of the gross asset value ('GAV') excluding uncommitted cash from capital raisings up to £750 million;

- 1.0% per annum where GAV (excluding uncommitted cash from capital raisings) is between £750 million and £1.5 billion;

- 0.9% per annum where GAV (excluding uncommitted cash from capital raisings) value exceeds £1.5 billion.

Investment advisory fees in connection with new acquisitions are charged at a rate of 1.5% of the value of new acquisitions.

The IAA can be terminated where less than 95% of the Group's assets are available for use for certain periods and the Investment Adviser fails to implement a remediation plan agreed with the Group. The IAA may also be terminated by either party giving to the other five years notice of termination, expiring at any time after ten years from the date of the IAA.

As at 30 June 2016, Amber Infrastructure held 8,002,379 (June 2015: 8,002,379) shares in the Company. The shares held by the Investment Adviser in the Company helps further strengthen the alignment of interests between the two parties.

Transactions with Directors
