A “roller coaster” swap is one way of managing currency mismatches based on a project’s funding profile. The currency flows are estimated and written into the agreement to allow the project to fund uneven cash flows. For instance, equipment and services may need to be purchased from foreign suppliers on various dates during the build-out. The resulting cumulative cash flow may be a complex shape.

Capability-Based Planning (CBP) was developed but the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada for defense and military planning but is now used by businesses for strategic planning.
