You are the CFO of a sizable publicly-traded, multinational firm. Over the last 20 months, you've been working tirelessly to put together a deal for the construction of a very large manufacturing plant in Tokyo, Janapan. It's been quite a journey. You've spent weeks on end in Japan working with government representatives, architects, engineers and local contractors to get the project ready to go.
Back here in ohio, you've also worked out the details on a $140,000,000 syndicated debt facility led by JP Morgan and they're ready to go with a construction loan. That, and another $70,000,000 of the Company's cash reserves will fund the project's total cost.
This morning, as usual, you're at your desk when the CEO walks down the hall by your office with what looks to you to be a distracted look on her face. She stops, looks at you and says: "This escalating tension between us and China over the Covid-19 pandemic. . .Should that impact our strategy to move forward on the project? Let's plan on having lunch in my office so you can tell me what you think."
Well, there goes the morning! What do you tell the CEO at lunch time?
