Complementary capabilities
Partners should be chosen for their actual technical, financial and delivery contributions, not the appearance of geographic reach.
Structuring collaboration between domestic sponsors and specialist international counterparties.
A contractor may have local execution capability while lacking access to a specialised technology, operating history or international project credentials. A global partner may bring those capabilities but need the local knowledge and institutional access required for delivery. A workable consortium must do more than place their names together.
AFII's published transaction references include international joint-venture discussions and development arrangements in rail, roads and water infrastructure. In new mandates, the advisory task is to clarify member roles, management and capital contributions, risk-sharing and the structure through which bids or projects would be executed.
Each mandate needs a different balance of structure, commercial judgement and execution. These themes explain the practical issues that usually shape the work.
Partners should be chosen for their actual technical, financial and delivery contributions, not the appearance of geographic reach.
Bid authority, liability, performance security and decision-making need clear treatment before a tender is pursued.
Capital requirements can then be considered in light of the agreed consortium structure and the sponsor's responsibilities.
Nothing replaces the review of contracts, financial information and the particular circumstances of the borrower, project or investment. Each engagement remains specific to the transaction, counterparties and jurisdiction involved.
