Nyasha Muvirimi is a development finance specialist with decades of financial analysis experience on infrastructure projects in Africa and Europe.
She has extensive transactional advisory experience in the energy, finance, mining, agriculture, real estate and hazardous waste management infrastructure sectors.
She has advised and worked with government departments, utilities, developers, financiers and various corporates across Africa, Europe and Asia, and has successfully closed several infrastructure projects. Her experience covers the full value chain of energy projects from power generation through to distribution, as well as the development and financing of projects in various other sectors.
“My passion to increase energy access, specifically electricity, across Africa was ignited when I spent a winter without power because of an electrical fault in my neighbourhood. Ever since that winter of 2008, I decided to pursue the development of power sector projects not only in my home country, but across Africa.”
– Our founder, Nyasha Muvirimi
We understand that developing infrastructure projects can be complex and would require significant perseverance and tenacity to present bankable projects to prospective investors. This is where we come in.
We have vast experience in setting up and driving Project Management Offices that are the centres of coordinating project development processes with different workstreams.
We manage processes that cover the full value chain in project development from conducting feasibility studies, risk management, stakeholder engagement and management, coordinating roadshows with investors to financial close.
We also play a coordinating role in bid submissions to both private and public sector procurement processes.
A significant investment often requires comprehensive financial and commercial analyses to confirm the viability of the project. This is performed by both the asset developer/owner as well as the investor as they consider the bankability and quality of the asset, respectively.
We offer financial modeling, detailed risk analyses, project contract negotiations (commercial aspects), developing marketing material for roadshows and engaging investors to raise capital.
Our independence, proven processes and ability to draw interest from our wide investor network enables us to assist our clients to attract competitive terms from different investment instruments.
Often times infrastructure owners are hamstrung by finances and need to review their business models to better meet their operational and financial objectives.
We have experience in developing business strategies and finance or procurement plans to execute such projects.
