We combine rigorous analysis with deep industry expertise to help clients identify, evaluate, structure, design, engineer, construct and create value from investments and public-private partnerships.

Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Maintain Concessions. We serve both private and public entities on public-private partnerships (PPP) financing, origination, development, operations, and shareholder management. By applying a systematic approach, we help assess the full range of private and public options for funding infrastructure assets. Our proprietary models enable us to identify risk, advise on cost, and assess risk mitigation approaches and their implications on financing strategy. We help project owners identify the optimal strategy to raise financing for their project by drawing on our knowledge of the range of available tools and instruments, in-depth expertise on the assets under development, and insights into the project owner’s needs. We assist public entities in framing the case for PPP participation, developing the economic model and risk transfer solution for PPPs, managing PPPs and their various stakeholders, designing and staffing government units to review and manage PPPs, and optimizing the PPP process.

We support private investors in the following activities: analyzing the value of infrastructure opportunities and PPPs, structuring and securing economically-sound proposals, effectively and efficiently operating assets to generate value, and managing stakeholders and regulators to bolster long-term collaborative relationships. To ensure PPP projects also deliver economic and social benefits to the public, we draw on extensive client service in the public sector and our understanding of the challenges facing strained government agencies. We also help clients directly link their business unit strategies to their various financing strategies.

We partner with talented investment teams around the world. We combine rigorous fundamental research with a global perspective to pursue compelling investment strategies. We have a long-term time horizon and flexible capital and work with investment teams to create collaborative partnerships.
