Who Would Invest…….and Why?
Opportunity to engage in the Pacific region’s most important industry without the detailed planning & due diligence required for a direct investment
Spread of risk by country & asset class
Provides regional banks with access to new lending leads and risk sharing in projects that are thinly capitalised
![Page 28: Trinnex Workshop - Vanuatu](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56814675550346895db39c62/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Who Would Invest…….and Why?
Investment Managers see the need for longer term finance being invested in businesses with good underlying capital bases which are not making good Equity returns.
With both $s + Management these businesses can deliver higher yields and generate capital growth.
A 15% return on funds invested is proposed as a realistic target – higher returns are possible
![Page 29: Trinnex Workshop - Vanuatu](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56814675550346895db39c62/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Who Would Invest…….and Why?
An Investment Vehicle of a sufficient scale would eventually attract investment funds from AUS/NZ/ASIA/EU
No other platform for accessing these sources of funds
These generally have a minimum investment threshold of USD$10M
At present only development institutions can consider this level of funds
