Infrastructure Investing: Managing Risks & Rewards for Pensions, Insurance Companies & Endowments

Over the next decade, North America, Europe, and the developing world will experience an unprecedented surge of investment in infrastructure. The promise for investors is great; the risks are similarly huge. In his Infrastructure Investing: Managing Risks and Rewards for Pensions, Insurance Companies, and Endowments, Rajeev Sawant has given us a road map to investing in infrastructure. His analysis and writing is crisp, clear, and politically and economically sophisticated. Rajeev's book is must reading for smart investors.—Frank G. Wisner, International Affairs Advisor, Patton Boggs, LLP, Vice Chairman External Affairs AIG, U.S. Ambassador to India

"Rajeev Sawant's Infrastructure Investing is at the intersection of two of the most daunting challenges of the first half of the twenty-first century: the surge of infrastructure investing necessary to sustain population growth and to improve living standards, and finding long-tenor assets for pension funds and insurance companies on behalf of an aging population with ever longer life expectancies. By unlocking the alchemy of project finance, Sawant uniquely establishes infrastructure investing as an asset class. A must-read for all asset managers and any serious student of global investing."—Laurent L. Jacque, Walter B. Wriston Professor of International Finance & Banking, Fletcher School, Tufts University
