Adani Calls for Wider Lenses in Infrastructure Credit Framework
Gautam Adani suggested changing how infrastructure projects are judged for credit.
He said the rules should not simply look at one project by itself.
Instead, they should also consider how the project helps the wider economy.
The rules could include the extra value created around the project.
Adani said this would mean using wider lenses, not lowering standards.
He shared this view at the CareEdge Group Annual Summit.
