Infrastructure projects typically involve large investments in physical assets for companies and government agencies. Return on investment is normally long term which demands sound practices in the forecast of initial capital investment as well as future revenues. It is no surprise that successful infrastructure projects require proper allocation of risks among the parties, from Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC's) contracts to loan agreements and revenue regulation. Good practices in infrastructure projects call for robust risk-return analyses  that allow to choose the best form of contractual commitments such as concessions, take-or-pay agreements, public-private-partnerships (PPP's) and other arrangements.
