Guggenheim Global Infrastructure Company Leads Consortium in Acquisition of Peruvian Electric Company

"In our opinion,Peru is enjoying one of the most stable economic growth paths in the emerging markets: Its economy has continued to generate impressive gains. We believe that ESM's service territory has been growing at a rate above the national average, resulting in unmet demand that we look forward to serving," said GGIC's CEO Thomas A. Tribone.

ESM serves customers south ofLima, Peru and has entered into an arrangement with a leading Peruvian commercial bank to provide financing for expansion and upgrading of its electrical distribution system.
