Description

Project Finance Modelling will teach you how to build a financial model to evaluate equity returns and secure non-recourse debt.

It focuses on applying general business and non-recourse finance theory to cash flows forecast to arise from greenfield projects and special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”).

You will also build a model that evaluates equity returns and may be used to negotiate and secure non-recourse debt through a process of model optimisation.

On completing the course, you will have constructed a fully-functional financial model covering the period from the beginning of construction through to the end of the project’s operating period.
