A private equity firm was interested in developing an investment strategy focusing on the maritime sector. The firm already had a successful investment in aviation, and it saw the maritime sector as promising. The plan aimed at pursuing Middle East opportunities across all segments of the maritime sector: shipping lines, ports, service providers, asset financing, etc. The firm also wanted to consider the appropriate vehicle for carrying out the investments, and it wished to define the capabilities needed for implementing the strategy.
Strategy& adopted a systematic approach to scan all the maritime segments in the Middle East, analyze the economics and potential for entry for each segment, identify the most promising segments, and recommend a focused investment strategy. Strategy& also benchmarked best practices across the world and designed the investment vehicle required to launch the strategy.
