Project finance law applies to the process of valuing, structuring, and funding large public and private infrastructure and construction projects, such as light-rail installations and airplane construction. Topics include the economics of investing in developing countries, corporate governance, energy funding, international finance, and risk management. Legal areas involved may include environmental regulation, international trade, energy regulation, tax, securitization, and mergers and acquisitions.

 

Parties involved in project-finance transactions may include insurance companies, general contractors, credit providers, government agencies, financial institutions, and corporations. Project financing can involve multiple banks and lenders, with varying degrees of risk. It is a complicated process, and with so much at stake it must be carefully structured and documented.
