In most cases\, funds are provided by the private sector par tner\, but some projects are co-funded by both partners.\n\nProject Financ e is the long-term financing of a public infrastructural project and/or se rvice based on a non-recourse or limited recourse financing structure in w hich equity and debt used to finance the project are paid back from the ca sh flow generated from the project.\n\nWith project finance\, there is the authority of the lender to oversee project governance and performance\, f ostering cash flow reliability. Further\, the concept allows sponsors to r aise third-party funds without being directly liable to lenders.\n\nAn imp ortant matter of focus is the willingness of prospective lenders to financ e the project. Project finance is generally undertaken with no association with a previously functioning company\, i.e.\, a special purpose vehicle company is created to take forward the project until closure.\n\nThe sole purpose of this company is to see the project through to successful comple tion\, managing and regulating all related aspects along the way. In most cases\, this company is not related or drawn as a reference to a parent co mpany and has limited liability. Project finance agreements are mostly lon g-term since related projects are large-scale and extend across years.\n\n A typical feature of this arrangement or agreement is that there are multi ple participants involved\, such as lenders\, stakeholders\, contractors\, grantors\, etc. The financing structure is non-recourse in nature\, in th at the borrower or shareholder of the borrower has no personal liability i n case of monetary default.\n\nHowever\, in cases in which the lender is n ot fully convinced of the potential of the project to repay the entire loa n\, the lender may extend the liability in a limited capacity to the borro wer. Documentation is very complex in such cases\, and risk identification and allocation is critical and given extreme importance.\n\nThis Xcelerat e Training Institute course will empower you with adequate knowledge and i nformation about project finance and PPPs.
