The new infraMetrics Masterclass is packed with new training material on how to invest in infrastructure using better methods and better data. The session will be led Dr. Frederic Blanc-Brude, Ph.D., Director of EDHECinfra, and Abhishek Gupta, Head of infraMetrics Product Development.

• Investment benchmarks: find your market, your peer group and your vintage (and forget about absolute returns).
• Fair Value: why computing marks more frequently (and accurately) is important, and how to do it.

This workshop on June 27, 2023, in Tokyo is designed for investment professionals that already invest or want to invest in unlisted infrastructure equity or debt. InfraMetrics® was created by the EDHEC Infrastructure Institute and launched in 2019 and is the result of a decade of work collecting data and building robust valuation and risk measurement tools for unlisted assets. Today it is used by numerous investors including prominent European plans.

2. Selecting assets to invest in (and exit later): assessing cash flows and risk factors (betas), estimating the market price of risk (market yield and risk premia), paying the right price (expected returns and the cost of capital), keeping track of the portfolio (portfolio construction, position keeping, performance benchmarking), and exiting investments
3. Selecting a fund manager / pitching and reporting to LPs: mapping your strategy to the market for funds, quartile rankings of infrastructure funds
4. Reporting performance and risks: yield (income) benchmarking, risk-adjusted performance benchmarking, regulatory risk reporting (prudential models, product risk scores), liquidity risk measurement and management
5. Sustainability risks: scientific and robust climate and social risk metrics for infrastructure investors
