The Opportunity:

EY-P works with clients to manage their capital agenda to drive competitive advantage and increased returns. As part of a global team of 10,000 professionals in 100 countries you will advise clients on preserving, optimizing, raising or investing capital. Major groups (or, as we call them, sub-service lines and competencies) within EY-P include Transactions and Corporate Finance (TCF) – that will bring together Transaction Diligence (TD), Valuation, Modeling and Economics (VME), and Lead Advisory (LA). Uniquely, EY-P brings together a world-class strategy practice - an unmatched Transactions and Corporate Finance (TCF) capability and the deep Tax expertise delivered via International Tax and Transaction Services (ITTS). Given the longstanding and deep relationships of these competencies with our clients, our sub-service lines will allow our practice to drive further growth to an already successful practice and continue to be key drivers of innovation within our business.

EY advises on financial, procurement, strategic and public-private partnership issues for large-scale infrastructure projects and programs.

Estimates show that 75% of the infrastructure that will be in place in 2050 does not exist today. This is why it is important to get your infrastructure strategy put together and implemented as soon as possible.

Infrastructure investment and sustainable development are top priorities for governments globally. Rapid urbanization and population growth are putting pressure on emerging markets to develop critical new infrastructure, while aging assets and continued underinvestment mean developed economies need to expand their existing focus on infrastructure.

Meanwhile, smart cities are emerging as an investment need, with the interface between urban growth, technology, infrastructure and capital requirements presenting a unique set of opportunities and challenges.

Our infrastructure team supports infrastructure programs from end to end with an integrated approach to help owners, investors and operators deliver value by advising clients on financial, procurement, strategic and public-private partnerships
