Investment Strategy
Private equity investment in the independent electric power and infrastructure sector in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Majority ownership and control of the project company.
Significant basic infrastructure needs throughout the region and lack of local capital.
Infrastructure assets produce current income – success of investment is not contingent on exit.
Mitigate currency risk – revenue contracts in US$ or based on prices that are US$ linked.
Construction and Operational risk mitigation through project finance structure. Contracts with creditworthy entities.
