Understanding The Mandate
What strategic capability does the position create, and how will it be governed?
Principal Investments
A strategic stake can matter because it provides access to a market, an asset platform or capabilities needed for a broader programme. The commercial rationale may therefore be different from buying a passive security, but the financial and governance disciplines are not less important.
AFII considers such positions against their long-term fit, management requirements and the opportunity cost of committed capital. A potential partnership should not be presented as an existing subsidiary or controlled entity before the legal and ownership facts are confirmed.
The Issues That MatterWhat The Structure
What The Structure
Needs To Address.
Each mandate needs a different balance of structure, commercial judgement and execution. These themes explain the practical issues that usually shape the work.
Control and influence
Ownership percentage alone does not describe governance. Contracts and board rights determine practical influence.
Ongoing commitments
Management time, guarantees and follow-on funding can create material costs after entry.
