One of the infrastructure fund managers behind London's super-sewer project has raised 66% more than its target - underlining investors' hunger for yield in a low-rates, post-Brexit world.

Listed infrastructure fund INPP said it had brought in £125 million in its latest capital raising, 66% more than the £75 million it had been targeting.
