Welcome to EC Partners

We provide institutional and other sophisticated investors with access to property investments with superior risk-return characteristics. We have extensive expertise in delivering greenfield projects that match specific end-user requirements and with structuring innovative delivery and funding mechanisms.  This capability allows investors access to new and innovative projects that are not readily available in the traditional property marketplace.

Risk assessment and management is a specific strength in our approach to commercial property development and analysis.  Property investment is highly cyclical and robust risk management strategies are essential for the realisation of risk-return expectations. Whilst ticket price is a key factor in assessing property, we believe that costs and returns should be assessed over the full investment lifecycle of an asset.

Structuring projects and investment opportunities that properly align the interests of all stakeholders is a core strength of our approach.  By combining our practical experience in developing commercial property with our financial modeling skills we are able to thoroughly assess projects and investment decisions. The banking and finance and investment management expertise within our group means that we understand the requirements of debt and equity providers giving us with a competitive advantage in structuring our projects to maximise risk-adjusted returns. 

Pre-commitment projects designed to meet specific end-user requirements must be approached with a responsive and consultative mindset.  To this end EC Partners will only work with people and contractors that have a strong customer ethos and are prepared to back their commitment to a project by aligning their interests with those of the customer.   In the course of developing an extensive portfolio of government, commercial, industrial, retail, and residential projects we have we established strong long term relationships with our service providers.

EC Partners recognises that sound ongoing management will maximise the physical life of a property asset as well as help minimise volatility in the returns by ensuring that tenants and end-users are satisfied with the continued performance of the asset.

EC Partners provides investors with access to infrastructure assets with superior risk-return characteristics. We endeavour to have early engagement with projects and aim to match the requirements of investors with the characteristics of the assets. The investors we engage include pension funds and other institutional investors as well as corporates with strategic interests in owning and operating specific assets.  Our key focus has been on assets in the energy sector ranging in maturity from early stage developments to operational assets.  EC Partners have provided advisory services to clients ranging from large multi-national corporations to small developers to support M&A initiatives and project development activities.
 The rapidly changing landscape in the energy sector, particularly through the impact of climate change policy and privatisation policy, is creating a range of new risks that need to be managed and new opportunities that can be harnessed. EC Partners are experts in the economics of climate change policy and in the technical and commercial attributes of a wide range of technologies for generating and distributing electricity. We have worked with clients on a range of energy assets including:
coal, gas, wind and solar generation; electricity transmission and network support; and bio-energy.  A key feature of our investment and advisory work is our preparedness to work closely with the client to gain a thorough understanding of their issues and to tailor solutions that meet their specific needs. We endeavour to align our interests with those of the client, including the structuring of remuneration to reward success.
