Event Summary:
The course will be held over two days, with an optional third day. 
 
Through discussion of relevant organisation structures, effective regulation, enabling legislation and risk management techniques used in Project Finance and PPP projects, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of Project Finance deals. The course will be led by experts in the legal & banking sectors and will include detailed course materials, with interactive discussions, working groups and case studies. The delegates will be provided with copies of the main project documents i.e. Project Agreement, Construction Contract, Operations Agreement, Term Sheets and Loan Agreements.
 
The key issues in the Project Agreements and Financing documents will be covered in the two day course. An optional third day is available for those delegates who wish to understand the various agreements in more detail and for practitioners involved in the detailed negotiation of the terms. The aim of the course is to give attendees a basic toolkit of knowledge and reference materials to enable them to understand the PPP process and the roles of key stakeholders.
