Executive Summary
PME African Infrastructure Opportunities plc is a newly incorporated Isle of Man company with an investment objective to achieve significant total return to investors through investing in various infrastructure projects and related opportunities across a range of countries in sub-Saharan Africa. The Company's investment strategy is to identify infrastructure opportunities across the region and the Company will focus on projects involving contracts or concessions with credit worthy clients. The Company intends to invest in the transportation, telecommunications, energy, water and sanitation and infrastructure-related real estate sectors and to form part of public private partnerships. Investments will be made throughout sub-Saharan Africa with particular focus on investment into existing infrastructure operations and greenfield projects in Angola, Botswana, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mozambique, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia. The Company will, where possible, invest in infrastructure projects and related opportunities through special purpose companies or other entities. The Company will seek to obtain controlling interests or significant minority interests in the projects in which it invests which will carry board representation and/or meaningful shareholder rights. The Investment Manager is responsible for sourcing investment opportunities through referrals, direct approaches and general and direct strategies employed by the Investment Manager to specific industries. If the board of the Investment Manager give approval to pursue an opportunity, the Investment Manager, together with appropriate external experts such as accountants, lawyers and sector specific experts, will perform a detailed due diligence investigation and feasibility study. The Investment Manager will negotiate the terms and structure of a proposed investment with the objective of minimising risk and maximising return. Once a transaction has been negotiated an investment submission will be made to the Board of the Company to obtain approval for the investment. Together, the Board has experience in a number property investment and alternative investment companies, including in Southern Africa. The Investment Manager believes that diversification across a number of countries and infrastructure sectors will contribute to lower investment risk and the Company therefore intends to maintain a diversified portfolio. The Investment Manager anticipates that once the Company is substantially invested, the Company will hold investments in approximately 10 to 15 infrastructure or infrastructure-related projects.
