ABOUT US
We have been at the forefront of completing complex infrastructure advisory and project finance transactions, with a particular focus on the challenging markets in Eurasian region.
As the recognized regional leader in infrastructure finance, our advice helps clients make the right decision. Delivery of privately financed infrastructure projects or corporate assets is a complex process requiring expert advice. Investors and funders need to know their money is being invested in projects or businesses that offer clear returns and predictable cash flows from appropriate structures. Governments and public bodies need to develop funding and delivery strategies that attract investment in sustainable infrastructure to deliver economic and social growth. Sponsors, developers and operators, meanwhile, need to choose the right type of capital and financing model to ensure projects or corporate initiatives are affordable, provide value for money and offer a stable, lasting legacy.
