Frequently asked questions
What does a typical report cost?+
Sector deep-dives start at USD 18,000. Full feasibility studies with financial models range USD 35,000–75,000 depending on capex scale and primary interviews required.
Can you cover sectors not on your standard list?+
Yes. Bespoke research outside our 38 standard sectors carries a 2-week scoping phase to confirm we can deliver to your quality bar before we quote.
Will the report stand up to my IC and external lenders?+
Reports are built to satisfy ECA, DFI, and commercial lender due diligence. We have authored reports cited in IFC, EBRD, and World Bank project documents.
Do you sign exclusivity?+
Yes, on bespoke commissions. We will not author a competing report on the same target asset or transaction for 12 months from delivery.

From the field
ChallengeA European solar EPC needed to validate a 500 MW pipeline opportunity in Iran before committing pre-development capital, against shifting tariff policy and currency volatility.
ApproachSix-week deep-dive: NTSO data extraction, 22 interviews across MAPNA, SATBA, and provincial utilities, FX-stress-tested project IRR model in three scenarios, and a sanctions-overlay regulatory map.
OutcomeClient redirected from two of three target provinces to higher-irradiation, lower-curtailment sites and renegotiated EPC pricing using benchmark data from the report.
Service questions
How recent is your underlying data?+
All quantitative inputs are dated and sourced. Macro inputs (CBI, SCI, customs) are refreshed monthly; sector inputs (production, capacity, prices) are refreshed per engagement against primary sources rather than re-using stock figures.
Do you conduct interviews in Persian?+
Yes — our analyst team is bilingual. Interview transcripts are delivered in English with Persian originals attached so your team can verify quotes independently.
Can you produce IFRS-aligned financial projections?+
Yes. Operating models are built in IFRS with a parallel Iranian Accounting Standards view where it materially changes the picture (notably inflation accounting and FX translation).
Will you sign off on numbers for our investment committee?+
We sign a methodology and source statement, and our partner attends one IC session free of charge to answer questions on the model. Formal fairness opinions sit with regulated firms and are out of scope.
Do you handle sensitive sectors (defence, dual-use)?+
No. We decline mandates in defence, nuclear, and dual-use technology. All engagements are pre-cleared through our internal sanctions and conflict-of-interest screen.
