Project Finance Services
Washington International project finance services are normally engaged on the basis of a Mandate agreed upon with the project's sponsors or potential investors. This Mandate may call upon Washington International to perform some or all of the following tasks during project preparation and implementation:
-
Prestructuring & due diligence:
- A detailed onsite analysis of the proposed investment is conducted, and due diligence on the sponsors, their operations and proposed long-term role in the project is carried out, with the aim is of improving project formulation and the likelihood of financial success in the international marketplace.
-
Preparation of project financing documents:
- Washington International directly prepares or assists the client in preparing an Information Memorandum or Business Plan designed to demonstrate the attractiveness of the investment to potential equity or debt financiers. Besides describing a soundly designed, well-structured and bankable project, this document also provides technical and financial background information, and describes the proposed funding structure and potential funding sources.
-
Negotiation of financial package:
- Washington International normally stays with its clients after initial "Road Show" presentations, providing active support and assistance during all phases and steps of the financing mobilization process, particularly during the negotiation stage, and ending with the closing of a satisfactory project finance deal.
-
Management consulting for the project implementation phase:
- Following the completion of the financing, Washington International is ready, at the client's request, to provide further support in the form of ongoing management advisory services during project implementation and beyond.
