Investment Strategies and Select Highlights:
- Pursue minority positions as financial investor in a consortium with strategic and local investors
- Bid on operating assets being privatized by various governments
- Target individual electric power facilities yielding IRRs to the portfolio
of 20-30% solely from operating distributions
- Given highly competitive and difficult market conditions, investment strategy shifted to invest in medium sized $50-100 million Greenfield projects (majority of holdings)
- In 2007 all the remaining assets in the portfolio were sold. Jamaica has a small portion of the paid money in an escrow account to be released in Q3 2008. Aguaytia was paid 52% in cash and a six month promissory note for the remaining portion.
