What's at stake
What is really at stake
- 01Project financing is not a term loan against a balance sheet.Drawdown follows construction milestones, repayment depends on project cash flow, and security covers land, contracts, receivables and shares.
- 02If the facility, the construction contract and the offtake or sales arrangements are not aligned, drawdown stalls, conditions cannot be satisfied and the project stops while everyone renegotiates.
In plain words
Project and Development Financing Documentation
Documentation for project and development financing — the facility and drawdown mechanics tied to milestones, the security package across project assets, assignment of contracts and receivables, conditions precedent, and alignment with the construction and revenue documentation.
What good looks like
Imagine a facility where drawdown conditions match the construction programme, security covers the project properly, and revenue documentation supports the repayment assumptions.
