Introduction

 
 

Nowadays, investments without risk are seldom to find, especially regarding investments in business projects.

Particularly, before undertaking an investment project, an investor faces numerous questions and queries surrounding the project, that all to some extent are about the risk taken in the project. In this respect, possibly one of the main sources of concern to the investor is the economic and financial risk of the investment, as well as the feasibility of the project.

For example, in the moment to decide whether to invest or not, the following questions may come up to an investor?

• When do you recover the initial investment?

• Which financing mechanisms can be the most suitable?

• How are the income and outcome cash flows related?

• What are the expected gains and in which moment/s are they expected to take place?

• How do you compare the investment with other similar or alternative investments?

Moreover, taking into account the increasing competitivity and the globalisation of the markets in general, these questions will be present along the entire term of the investment.
