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. To get started, please work through Excel Proficiency Skills and then Model Construction Skills if you are new to F1F9 training. Then you'll be ready to start with the Project Finance Modelling modules. Do remember we're here to support you: simply email us at support@f1f9.com.
