E. R. Yescombe's practical guide to project finance offers a systematic approach to this relatively new discipline, which is now used throughout the world in energy, infrastructure, natural resources, and other projects. Because project finance dictates every aspect of a project's development and contractual arrangements, all participants need to understand how this type of financing works and how the financial structure affects their roles. This examination of financial engineering tools therefore follows the typical project development process to demonstrate the principles which underlie the structuring of long-term debt finance for major projects. The book is intended both as an introduction to project finance and a general working handbook for those involved in any aspect of a project.

Key Features:
-A comprehensive and authoritative guide to the theory and practice of project finance.
-An international scope, covering projects in both the developed and developing worlds.
-The book describes and explains:
-Sources of project finance.
-Typical commercial contracts (such as those for construction of the project and sale of its product or services) and their impact on the project finance structure.
-Project finance risk assessment from the points of view of lenders, investors, and other project parties.
-Structuring the project finance debt.
-The key issues in negotiating a project finance debt facility.
-Extensive glossary and cross-referencing.
-No prior knowledge of project finance or financing techniques is assumed.

About the Author
E.R. Yescombe is an independent consultant on project finance and public-private partnerships (PPPs), advising investors on financing for power, infrastructure and PPP projects, as well as public-sector entities on PPP policy issues, project procurement and contracting.
