I've been preparing for IB interviews but got this out of the blue. feel comfortable with accounting, dcf, m&a models, and lbo's. what should I expect in this interview and any advice?

Disclaimer: have never touched Infra

I would:

1) Understand why Infra as an asset class (vs PE, etc.)

2) Understand to some extent how infra modelling and financials can differ from general corporates (PPAs, regulatory ROE)

3) Understand market trends in the infra space (before COVID anyway - things like renewables, privatisation of the sector)

You have a few infra threads around on WSO - please search for those.
