Navigating Risks in Project Finance
When it comes to infrastructure and capital projects, managing risks and incentives correctly can be a major enabler for opening up new funding streams and creating bankable project pipelines.
There’s a huge amount of institutional capital that’s available to invest. The challenge really is making those projects investible. You need to have somebody who’s a deal maker, basically, who can bring the parties together especially in a world where increasingly businesses are looking for funding stream that need to come into the piece of infrastructure at the outset.
An infrastructure investment has risk in three horizons. The first horizon, there will be risk associated with the construction. Large investments are known for going over budget and over time. In the second horizon, there will be risks associated with the operation, especially the ramp-up. To what extent will that asset be used to its full potential during its lifetime? There’s a third horizon, which are the long-term implications of that infrastructure investment to overall economic development, in many cases, is very hard to measure and, as a consequence, it is very difficult to allocate the specific risks associated with whether or not that benefit will materialize.
Implementing a Private Equity Strategic Vision
Established organizations are mostly structured to do yesterday’s work. To meet the changing needs of today’s and tomorrow’s customers, businesses must constantly reinvent their structure, human capital, processes, and technology.
Private Equity firms do this and create value by focusing on the medium and long term, as well as on the short term. Among the best of them, this emphasis on the classic three horizons of growth shows up in their vision, investment, governance, operations, talent, and capitalization.
A successful long-term strategy requires historical or baseline products, emerging product lines, and future growth trajectories. Public companies often focus on the first two, but the third is the hardest—even though it often has the biggest impact on long-term value creation. Private-equity firms more actively explore this third horizon and are diligent about identifying and making tactical bets against it.
This was partly because of industry regulation, which required that we write down every new product we created and file it with public agencies. That eventually allowed competitors to launch copycat products, so we had to innovate constantly to stay ahead of the competitors.


Global Banking Annual Review: The Great Banking Transition
Banking has had to chart a challenging course over the past few years, during which institutions faced increased oversight, digital innovation, and new competitors, and all at a time when interest rates were at historic lows.
The past few months have also brought their share of upsets, including liquidity woes and some bank failures. But, broadly speaking, a favorable wind seems to have returned to the industry’s sails. The past 18 months have been the best period for global banking overall since at least 2007, as rising interest rates have boosted profits in a more benign credit environment.
All financial institutions will need to examine each of their businesses to assess where their competitive advantages lie across and within the three core banking activities of balance sheet, transactions, and distribution. And they will need to do so in a world in which technology and AI will play a more prominent role, and against the backdrop of a shifting macroeconomic environment and heightened geopolitical risks.
Banking profits are up, thanks to rising interest rates, but financial institutions globally need to reinvent themselves in the face of major structural and macroeconomic shifts.
