INSTRUCTIONS:
Discuss the choice of the investment vehicle(s) you will select to complete the investment, for example, direct purchase of infrastructure through the infrastructure fund of the Pension fund and also through specialized infrastructure funds, and/or indirectly by buying shares of infrastructure companies. Justify your choice and compare the choice of investment vehicle and the advantages and disadvantages of it to other possible vehicles. Please note that there is no right, or wrong decision and you should use appropriate data and material from the lectures to justify your rationale. Once you have decided on the vehicle, choose a specific example(s) of a project and discuss how you plan to allocate the money and discuss the risks you would be exposed to through your investment. In addition to that, choose a project for which data is readily available and calculate the return on your investment. If you do not have all the data, make realistic assumptions and justify those in the text. Assume that you are not taking any leverage and the 2bn are all pensioners’ savings. Also, discuss your choice of a sector and the length of your investment. In terms of the format of the report-style essay, it should start with an executive summary of no more than 200 words, that includes key findings. There is no need for any particular structure such as Introduction or Literature review. However, you should have a Concluding section which summarizes your thought process and investment decision. Please, make reference to lecture materials. You may want to underpin your report with academic literature related to infrastructure investing. When using data, all sources (incl. in tables and graphs) should be clearly stated. Please just choose 2 investment options, one of them Assura, another of your choice based on research, or use one of the ones from my presentation I have attached. Harvard style please and cite properly!
