Digital Infra fund Model test

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some resources and tips for preparing for Digital Infrastructure fund model tests:

1. Ed Bodmer's Resources:

   • Ed Bodmer has comprehensive videos and exercises on project finance and infrastructure modeling. You can find his resources here: https://edbodmer.com/project-finance-exercises/</a">Ed Bodmer's Project Finance Exercises.

2. Modeling Test / Case Study Types:

   • Type 2A: Short Form Construction Stage Infrastructure Model:
     • This is a common test where you are given 3-4 hours to complete a model and presentation.
     • Example prompt: Assume you are a developer constructing a solar asset with a 1-year construction timeline and a 30-year useful life. The cost to construct is $500mm spread evenly over 12 months, with a nameplate capacity of 200MW.

3. Practice and Materials:

   • Many Equity Investors / PE funds require a modeling test as part of their recruitment process. Practicing these tests can help you build simple models from scratch and learn on the go.
   • You can reach out to peers or mentors on WSO forums to exchange modeling tests and case studies. For instance, users like "juststop" have offered to share materials, including a modeling test built for recruitment purposes.

4. Additional Resources:

   • Free e-books on model optimization from F1F9 can be very helpful. Check out their resources here: https://www.f1f9.com/resources/essential-model-optimisation</a">F1F9 Essential Model Optimisation.

Feel free to PM users on WSO forums who have offered to share materials for more specific examples and practice tests.
