Asset Carve-Outs: Unlocking Value Through Innovative Financing

Many businesses develop and own assets to support their growth, often investing in large, expensive physical assets critical to their operations. Doing so can impact balance sheet capacity and increase debt levels. Given this, some businesses question whether it always makes sense for businesses to remain the asset owner? For example, does a mining company need to own its workers' accommodation? Does a gas project need to own its gas piping network? Or does a manufacturing
plant need its associated utility infrastructure?

Increasingly, businesses are looking to "carve-out" and monetize their assets through innovative financing structures, whilst still maintaining control and operations. But is this really a new asset class for traditional infrastructure investors and lenders to consider?

This session will explore:
• Current Market Trends: Discuss which sectors are best suited for an asset carve-out in today's market and recent case studies
• Seller Benefits: Examine the advantages for sellers when they decide to monetize their assets
• Investor and Lender Risks: Understand the main risks for incoming investors and lenders, and how to mitigate them
• Structuring Arrangements: Learn how these innovative financing structures are being set up and any legislative concerns that need to be addressed.

Speakers to be announced soon.
