Project Finance & PPP
Every large and ambitious project entails significant risks and has long-term impact and financial consequences – and all of those need to be spotted and understood, as well as allocated to the project company, sponsors, contracting authority and financiers to deal with. This might be a road or a public building constructed using the public-private partnership model, or an infrastructure or production facility with development fund support. As a sponsor you would like the project risks to be ringfenced from your other businesses – we have experience with all of these situations and more. As financier, you want to know the risk profile of your ultimate borrower and their revenue stream. With many more projects expected to come to our markets in the future, we are already equipped to be a valuable part of your advisory team. When it comes to charting a clear path for ambitious ideas, we speak the same language as financial and technical experts.
