Would you risk your money today?

Current owners/investors of distressed projects are desperately looking for an exit, some of them incapable to complete their projects, others seeing how their completed developments lie unoccupied and wondering how to fulfill financial obligations. From their side, banks, lenders and investors are desperate to prove to boards, shareholders and more importantly, supervision and rating agencies that they do not hold bad debt… and they dread the moment in which they will have to cover them with provisions putting additional stress in balance sheet and banking ratios.

It is no news that cash is king nowadays, and everyone with cash (BTW, anyone with cash?)  will do better by keeping it safe. But until when? Aggressive investors are obsessively looking for the forerunners of economic take-off; prudent investors will not risk a penny until the recovery is really up and running and will nonchalantly let the first wave pass and will only enter after.

But, what about remodeling/ regenerating projects?
Restructuring projects can be done with very little investment in remodeling. Basic configurations can be destined for alternative uses capable to generate revenue… And if revenue is predictable, banks and investors will make an effort to extend/modify the conditions. And most importantly, the project can again be reconfigured to its original destination once the economy has recovered

Regenerating projects is a win-win situation. Not much additional cash is needed and all involved will benefit.
