KEY INVESTMENT AREA
Seventh Alliance International Construction Company is a Singaporean International construction
company with a mandate to invest in infrastructural development, technical assistance and
construction financing in emerging markets and developing economies.

COUNTRY OR COUNTRIES WITH INFRASTRUCTURE OPPORTUNITIES

Nigeria is currently faced with huge infrastructural gap that has hindered its desire to exploit its rich
natural and human resources to stimulate its development. For instance, in spite of the country’s huge
oil and gas, sunlight and hydro-resources, Nigeria cannot generate enough electricity to drive its
development.
The total amount of funds required to provide quality infrastructure in Nigeria over the next six years
is about $100 billion. The Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC) of Nigeria has
estimated that while about $60 billion would be required for the oil and gas sector; about $20 billion
to revamp the power sector; $14 billion for road; and between $8 and $17 billion for rail tracks.

has decided to get political risk insurance from the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA)
Specifically, we will be getting coverage for war, terrorism, and civil disturbance from the Multilateral
Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA). This will provide for us protection against loss from, damage
to, or the destruction or disappearance of, our tangible assets or total business interruption caused

APPLICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL & GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Seventh Alliance International Construction Company will apply environmental and social governance
principles when investing in critical infrastructural projects in Nigeria.
One of such environmental principles is the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). The EIA process
is the various stages a project undergoes from proposal to approval for implementation, resulting in
the issuing of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and certificate. The term encompasses several
stages, viz:
• determining if Federal Environmental Protection Agency of Nigeria environmental laws/regulations
have been triggered;
• screening a project for potential environmental effects;
• scoping to determine the spatial and temporary dimension of environmental effects;
• carrying out detailed base line studies to determine the environmental condition prior to project
implementation;
• preparing a detailed assessment report;
• carrying out a panel review of the EIA report if this is necessary; and
• obtaining authorization/approval, where appropriate.
On the social principles spectrum, Seventh Alliance International Construction Company will invest
massively in promoting free education by donating 5% of its annual revenues to the construction of
new schools, creating scholarship programs, funding libraries and laboratories, feeding under-
privileged children in rural public schools.
Seventh Alliance International Construction Company will observe core corporate governance
principles. We will ensure that our company uses transparent accounting standards at all times. Also,
the company will not be involved in any form of corrupt practice such as contract racketeering,
fraudulent bidding practices, bribery and corruption.
CONCLUSION
Seventh Alliance International Construction Company is set to invest $500 Million in infrastructural
development and finance in Nigeria. Our focal point is the construction of roads, bridges, railway
tracks, airports, tunnels, modular refineries, real estate etc. Our core mandate is to ensure the
economic development and prosperity of Nigeria while we mitigate risks and maximize profits.
