Step 7 / Real options – staged investment
The real options approach bridges the gap between financial options and business investment projects.

Real options provide a complementary analysis to the evaluation provided by net present value (NPV), which does not take sufficient account of the flexibility of projects and situations of uncertainty.
The real options method is therefore an emerging approach, through which the consequences of a situation of uncertainty can be superimposed on the investment process.
