〔財經頻道/綜合報導〕人工智慧(AI)基礎建設投資再添大筆資金。韓國投資金融集團旗下韓國投資私募股權公司(KIPPE)28日宣布,將結合集團資本與自身資金,建立規模達1兆韓元(約新台幣230億)的投資平台,鎖定人工智慧資料中心(AIDC)、大型發電設施、儲能系統(ESS)及高速通訊網路等基礎建設領域。

韓媒報導,韓國投資私募股權公司表示,此次投資平台將運用韓國投資金融集團的資本實力,以及自身資本出資(GP承諾),主要目的在於加速人工智慧發展所需的大規模基礎設施投資。相較於僅依賴外部投資者融資,該公司計畫直接運用集團自有資金,以提高投資決策與資金執行速度。

請繼續往下閱讀...

截至今年6月底,韓國投資金融集團管理資產規模約607兆韓元(約新台幣13.96兆)。韓國投資私募股權公司將集團的金融與投資能力與自身資本結合,尋找人工智慧基礎設施領域需要大規模資本投入的投資機會。

事實上,韓國投資私募股權公司近期已持續加碼能源與基礎設施領域。去年6月,該公司與STICK另類資產管理公司共同完成收購SK蔚山GPS及SK多元公用事業公司49%股權,交易總額達1兆5952億韓元(約新台幣366.89億),並由SK集團持有兩家公司51%股權,以維持管理控制權。

此外,該KIPPE去年也與韓國投資證券、大信證券共同參與韓華能源股權投資,以約1.1兆韓元(約新台幣253億)收購韓華生命總裁金東元與韓華酒店及度假村副總裁金東善持有的韓華能源20%股份,其中韓國投資證券私募股權基金承擔約5000億韓元(約新台幣115億)。

2023年,韓國投資私募股權公司也參與SK On的IPO前股權投資。此次則計畫將過去透過少數股權投資、同時讓原有大股東維持管理控制權的策略,擴大至人工智慧資料中心與電力基礎設施。

隨著生成式人工智慧普及,資料中心除了需要投入大量資金建置伺服器與GPU,也需要大規模電力供應與冷卻設施維持運作,因此發電設施與儲能系統等電力基礎設施也成為投資目標。

China and the United States reached a consensus on reciprocal tax reductions of US$30 billion and established a trade council to promote economic and trade cooperation.

In May 2026, the heads of state of China and the United States met in Beijing and agreed to establish the Intergovernmental Trade Council. In September, the two sides reached consensus on the working procedures of the Trade Council, the US$30 billion reciprocal tax reduction framework and the product list during the eighth round of economic and trade consultations. The United States will reduce taxes on approximately US$30 billion of goods imported from China, including toys and home appliances, and China will reduce taxes on approximately US$30 billion of goods imported from the United States, including agricultural products and medical equipment. More than 90% of products will be exempt from all mutual tariffs and enjoy most-favored-nation status. The two sides agreed to establish an agricultural working group under the Trade Council and plan to hold its first meeting before the end of 2026 to expand practical cooperation in the agricultural field.

The construction industry shifts from site construction to factory manufacturing: modularization and intelligence promote the construction of good houses

As the construction of "good houses" advances, the construction industry is shifting from traditional on-site construction to an industrial, digital, and intelligent factory manufacturing model. Modular buildings realize parallel production between factories and construction sites, with an all-factor module being rolled off the production line every 20 minutes on average. The Huazhang Xinzhu project was delivered in 365 days, and the construction period of the Huabichang Hutong project was reduced from 15 months to 3 months. This transformation not only improves construction speed and accuracy, but also significantly reduces waste, material loss and energy consumption. It also changes the role of construction workers from manual labor to technical operations, and robots and AI begin to be applied to production lines.

Is diesel too expensive to be exported? Trump seriously considers it, but Goldman Sachs calculates "trouble in 9 weeks"

After U.S. diesel prices soared to record highs, the Trump administration is seriously considering a diesel export ban. Goldman Sachs' model shows that although the ban may initially reduce domestic diesel prices in the United States, diesel storage tanks will approach their upper limit after 9 to 10 weeks. Refinery production cuts may lead to a decrease in gasoline supply, pushing up U.S. retail gasoline prices. At the same time, diesel prices in Europe and Latin America may rise. Prices will rebound after the ban is lifted, and global inventories may not be able to recover immediately. Instead, Goldman Sachs is bullish on European gasoline in 2027, as high diesel profits will indirectly compress gasoline supply.
