Skyline Predicts Strong 2026 for Alternative Investments
Investment firm Skyline released an optimistic 2026 outlook for private alternative investments, with a focus on Canadian real estate and renewable energy infrastructure. The firm's positive forecast is based on improving operating conditions and the strategic positioning of its asset portfolio.
- The broader 2026 outlook for alternative investments is constructive, with firms like J.P. Morgan and Julius Baer noting that improved financing conditions and normalized interest rates are reviving deal activity after a slowdown. - Skyline's forecast follows a turbulent 2025 for Canadian real estate, with other analysts also predicting a measured recovery and stabilization in 2026 after the market absorbed higher interest rates. - A key driver for the renewable energy sector is the massive power demand from the growth of data centers; Ontario and Alberta alone have received requests for over 18,300 MW of new grid connections for data centers.
