Risk Management

Projects rarely fail from one surprise. They fail from risks nobody owned. We identify the financial risks that threaten your objectives, quantify them, and put the mitigation and monitoring in place to manage them.

Overview

What this service does for you.

Financing a project fixes some risks and creates others: interest rate and currency exposure, counterparty and credit risk, liquidity risk, and risks passed between parties in the contracts.

We make these visible, rank them by what they could cost, and agree who carries each one, so that decision makers see the exposure before it becomes a loss.

Best suited for
  • Capital projects with long tenors and large funding needs
  • Entities exposed to interest rate, currency or commodity movements
  • Boards setting risk appetite and reporting lines
  • Projects structured as public-private partnerships
What we do

Scope of work.

Financial risk register

Identify and describe the risks that could hamper financial objectives.

Credit and counterparty risk

Assess the strength of customers, suppliers, lenders and partners.

Interest rate and currency exposure

Measure sensitivity and review hedging options.

Liquidity and funding risk

Test cash flow resilience and refinancing exposure.

Risk allocation

Review how contracts and financing documents divide risk between parties.

Set indicators, trigger levels and a reporting rhythm for management.

How we work

Our approach, in four steps.

Step 1

Identify

Build the risk register with management, drawing on project and financing documents.

Step 2

Assess

Step 3

Mitigate

Agree actions such as structure, covenants, hedging, insurance or contract changes.

Step 4

Monitor

Put indicators and reporting in place so risks are tracked, not forgotten.
