INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT RISKS Project lifecycle approach
Note: the number of interviewees mentioning the issue: (-) if cited by less than 3 interviewees; (- -) from 3 to 4 interviewees; (- - -) from 5 to 6 interviewees; (- - - -) up to 6 interviewees. For those that stimulate investments in Brazil, it was applied the same criteria but the character was replaced with “+”. For the determinants that were not mentioned we added (+) because it seem not to repel private investors

FINDINGS
The sponsors’ of Porto Itapoá seem to have successfully controlled the:
• Planning, design, technological and construction risks by hiring a experienced contractor, project manager, law firm and equipment supplier;
• Market risks by bringing a shipping liner as a shareholder.
On the other hand, the sponsors could not overcome the challenges linked to the:
• Unfriendly business environment;
• Political instability;
• Regulatory issues.
Which have affected the project’s ability to generate cash flows due to the related delays.
