Real Estate Development Finance & Proptech
Fund developments and digitize property businesses.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Fintech partnerships in real estate development finance are signed faster than they are governed, and each one brings value and risk in the same signature. Boards tolerate transformation theatre for about two budget cycles — the third one funds a competitor instead. You leave able to say what your institution should own, what it should partner and what it should exit in real estate development finance — with the numbers to defend each.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Diagnose where your institution creates — and destroys — value in real estate development finance across the balance sheet.
- Present a real estate development finance position to boards and supervisors with evidence they will accept.
- Read the economics of real estate development finance like an operator: unit costs, network effects and risk-adjusted return.
- Sequence a real estate development finance transformation agenda that a board will fund and a regulator will endorse.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Partnership With Two Ledgers
A tier-two African bank has signed a fintech partnership in real estate development finance: revenue is shared one way in the contract and recognised another way in the books, and the partner’s conduct is now a supervisory topic. Nobody has reconciled the two ledgers since launch.
Your decision: Renegotiate, ring-fence, or exit the real estate development finance partnership — before the supervisor reconciles them for you.
IPAT Data Lab™
The real estate development finance unit economics at a pan-African insurer work in the business case and fail in the ledger.
Dataset: Synthetic product-level revenue, cost and capital data for a pan-African insurer.
Your task: Rebuild the unit economics, stress them against rate and funding shocks, and recommend what to scale or exit.
A stress-tested real estate development finance economics model and a board-grade summary page.
