To do well in M&A, you need certain skills You need to understand the value of a company, or an oil field, or a wind farm. You need to know how to structure a transaction, how to negotiate, how to turn a no into a yes. Some of the smartest people you will ever come across work with M&A. But many deals still fail. Not because those involved don’t know how to calculate synergies, do an equity bridge, or negotiate a warranty. Because the most important question isn’t can we do a deal? But should we do this deal? Answering this question requires a deep understanding of your organisation, its strategy, people and culture. It goes way beyond what any advisors or spreadsheets can tell you. You need both experience and imagination. So to do well in M&A, you need certain skills. But to do really well, you need good judgement. Artwork: Spoilt for choice #finance #strategy #m&a #energy

“Project Finance is purposely structured to separate the credit quality of the project asset from that of the sponsor.” You don’t need to be a large corporation to develop industry-scale projects. But the structure used by an oil major, typically using on-balance sheet finance and seeking to maximize returns as part of a larger portfolio, will be different than that of a small developer, leveraging project finance to meticulously contract their project in order to get access to non-dilutive capital. Chapter 1 covers the history and background of Project Finance, from its history in Roman shipping to today’s wide-ranging applications in infrastructure and renewables. Based upon the Nexus of Contracts theory, which project developers must master in order to succeed, projects can achieve a highly creditworthy standalone credit profile (SACP) regardless of sponsor credit. -- Over the next several weeks, we’ll feature sections in the report here on LinkedIn.
