But, these well-off investors, advisors & politicians miss-understand the downside risk for those not in as comfortable life positions as themselves.
They might be able to easily weather a loss of savings, but for those with little extra, a loss of slowly accrued savings is devastating - that's why they won' take a higher risk!

The Govt. is having talks with restructuring specialists about the process of (temporary) nationalisation of TW (after bankruptcy?) and its reorganisation...
but, one might wonder whether investors will launch an Investor State Dispute Settlement case (using investment treaty arbitration) to argue that the Govt. has rendered their investments worthless by such actions....

Top Tony Blair aide becomes UK Palestine envoy
Government efficiency guru Michael Barber will take on a new Palestine-facing role.Andrew McDonald (POLITICO)
Too often infrastructure schemes get caught in waves of review & change, tying up investment & sometimes misdirecting it, before any repayment can begin.
So, while there are other problems the unpredictable character of infrastructure strategy also helps undermine investments!
