Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about what Concessio covers, where its data comes from, how it compares, and what it costs.
Last updated July 29, 2026
What is Concessio?
Concessio is an infrastructure concession intelligence platform: 22,000+ government-granted concessions across 185 countries and 15 asset classes, with ownership tracking, extracted contract clauses, expiring-concession tracking, a REST API, and an MCP server for AI assistants. Every record traces to a primary government or regulatory source.
Where does Concessio's data come from?
From primary sources only: government procurement portals and gazettes, regulator filings, stock-exchange disclosures, multilateral development bank databases, and official grantor and concessionaire publications — 720+ sources refreshed daily. See the methodology page for the full sourcing standard.
How is Concessio different from Inframation, IJGlobal, or Infralogic?
Those services are strong at deal news and league tables. Concessio is structured around the concession contract itself: term and expiry dates, verbatim clause language, ownership history, and regulatory determinations, each record citing a primary source.
How do I find concessions expiring in the next few years?
Concessio tracks the expiry date of every concession in the database and lets you filter expiring concessions by sector, country, and time window — the workflow infrastructure funds use to originate opportunities before a formal process is announced.
Does Concessio have actual contract clause language?
Yes. Concessio has 3,500+ clauses extracted verbatim from concession agreements, gazettes, and regulatory documents, each with a citation to the source document — covering termination, tariff adjustment, extension options, change in law, and other clause families.
Does Concessio track upcoming tenders?
Yes. Concessio maintains a tender pipeline linked to the underlying assets and incumbent operators, so a re-tender can be seen in the context of the expiring concession behind it.
Does Concessio cover regulated utilities — allowed returns and RAB?
Yes. Concessio structures regulatory determinations — allowed returns, allowed revenues, regulated asset bases, and regulated tariffs — across regulatory regimes, with each row citing the determination document.
Can I see who owns or operates a concession?
Yes. Concessio ties ownership to each concession: the operator, equity holders, and dated acquisition and disposal events — 12,875 ownership events tracked as of July 2026.
Does Concessio have valuation data?
Concessio maintains a transactions database (6,596 transactions as of July 2026) covering concession M&A and financing events, with per-unit denominators such as passengers, kilometres, and TEU where disclosed.
How is Concessio different from the World Bank PPI database?
The World Bank PPI database is a valuable free resource and one of Concessio's 720+ sources. Concessio adds contract-level grain on top: term and expiry dates, verbatim clauses, ownership history, transaction records, and daily updates — the layers deal teams need that PPI does not carry.
Can I use Concessio inside Claude or other AI assistants?
Yes. Concessio ships an MCP server, so you can query the database in natural language from Claude and other MCP-compatible assistants. See the MCP server page for setup.
How often is the data updated?
Daily, from procurement databases, regulatory publications, and news monitoring.
