Aims and Objectives Limited recourse or non-recourse financing is one of the
principal means used to finance large infrastructure and strong revenue
producing projects both domestically and internationally. Lenders,particularly bilateral and multilateral lenders in emerging market
transactions, are willing to take post-completion project revenue riskwhen the myriad of commercial and political risks are properly allocated
among the transaction participants or adequately mitigated. Projectfinancing will be contrasted with balance sheet financing for similar
transactions. Case studies will be used to analyze issues that areconfronted in utilizing project financing, with emphasis on international
project financing, at the development, construction, and operations
phases, emphasizing lender concerns, but including environmental,labor, political, and other issues. Emphasis will be placed onunderstanding risk analysis, the rationale for appropriately allocating
risk among the parties, and the means of mitigating risks by the partiesto whom risks are allocated. Coverage will include selected
documentation issues and the underlying international legal and
regulatory drivers behind various provisions in agreements for projectfinance transactions. Coverage will also include an introduction to
workouts and restructurings of failing project finance transactions.
Selected international investment transactions, both actual andhypothetical, will be used to illustrate recurring issues.
