(Alliance News) - International Public Partnerships Ltd on Monday named Sarah Whitney as its next chair.

The London-based global infrastructure investor appointed Whitney as an independent non-executive director and chair designate from Monday.

She will succeed Mike Gerrard as chair at the annual general meeting in 2026.

In September, Gerrard announced his intention to step down from the board.

"Sarah will work closely with Mike and the board to ensure a smooth transition," the firm added.

Whitney currently serves as non-executive director at housebuilder Bellway PLC, JPMorgan Global Growth & Income PLC and Regional REIT Ltd.

She has previously chaired the supervisory board of BBGI Global Infrastructure SA.

"I have long-admired INPP and the highly attractive investment proposition it offers to shareholders looking for a long-term portfolio allocation that provides sustainable, inflation-linked income and opportunities for compelling capital growth," Whitney said.

Shares in International Public Partnerships were up 0.3% at 118.00 pence on Monday morning in London.
