The basis of transparent decision-making and good investment decisions are methods and tools that we have designed especially for our purposes.

In order to have clear hurdle rates for investments in a variety of countries and technology combinations, the Goodyields Capital team continuously refines its "risk-adjusted returns" methodology. A minimum risk-adjusted project rate of return which must not be undercut is calculated from the components risk-free interest rate, country risk, operational risk and revenue risk.

In addition, financial risks are also taken into account, which result in an increased risk-adjusted return on equity depending on the amount of leverage used.

Other methods include the use of our own benchmarking databases which we have created and maintain on the basis of a wide range of project analyses. This allows us to quickly identify optimisation potential and hidden reserves and buffers.

Our financial models are suited to the rapid evaluation of projects while also robust enough to provide a suitable basis for decision-making during the entire Due Diligence and negotiating process. This is not only important during the purchase of the assets, but also for future target/actual comparisons in asset controlling and management
