The Law and Business of International Project Finance - A Resource for Governments, Sponsors, Lenders, Lawyers and Project Participants (Hardcover)

Capital-intensive projects throughout the world - including large-scale energy, infrastructure, toll road, solid waste, and recycling projects - rely on project finance as the most important financing technique available. But the complexity of project finance requires that the practitioner predict and resolve a number of potential risks involving bankruptcy, currency, and political issues, among others, and often in emerging economies. Drawing on the author's 15-plus years of experience in all types of project finance, this text is a comprehensive, multidiscipline book addressing these risks and their resolution and detailing each of the elements necessary for a successful project financing. Mirroring the structure of an actual project finance deal, this all-in-one handbook examines each step of the process, from the rationale for the project finance, through risk allocation and mitigation, to dispute resolution. Topics discussed include: financing sources; environmental issues; bilateral and multilateral support; contract aspects and typical contract terms; project contracts as credit support; project finance loan documents; collateral documents; and permits. All participants in project financing - including lenders, developers, investors, host governments, governmental agencies, multilateral and bilateral agencies, off-take purchasers, input suppliers, contractors, and operators - should find this text an accessible tool and a research database. Its combination of practical features includes: a checklist of key considerations to assist the practitioner in structuring, negotiating a reviewing a project finance transaction; a detailed glossary of project finance terms; references to legal and business books and articles relating to project finance; and sample project finance clauses and provisions with discussion and suggestions implementation. These features should enable practitioners and non-practitioners at all levels to understand the components and language of project finance and to recognize and avoid potential pitfalls.
