The Problem With Traditional Project Finance and How We Solve it Using Structured Finance.
Traditional Project Finance Requires Time and more Upfront Funding
In traditional project finance, project developers spend at least 5% of the project costs in project preparation just to turn it bankable.Even though it is still far less than what the banks would require, the time and effort to raise the 5% often makes it hard for many great projects to get over this bump and they get stuck.In structured finance that uses arbitrage trading , you may simply need 1% (if the project cost is 100M minimum) to start raising capital to prepare the project and eventually get it funded or build up enough equity to attract local banks.
Traditional Project Finance is Partially Non Recourse
In traditional project finance, the repayment obligation is limited to the project being built, so the project developer’s personal assets are protected. However, there is still a risk because of the debt financing process that requires repayment. On the other hand, when a project developer uses structured finance to raise capital, the risk is only on the funds being raised through either arbitrage trading, a managed buy/sell of bank instruments, or hard assets monetization, but not on the deposit often required to initiate this type of funding. The beauty is that the risk is minimal and often mitigated by insurance wrap. Additionally, the project developer does not have to repay a single penny when the project is built.
Traditional Project Finance Requires Due Diligence ,Underwriting and Closing Costs
In traditional project finance, due diligence, underwriting, and closing costs are a part of the process before the funding is released. These costs are usually covered by the project developer and refunded if the funder decides not to finance the project. In structured finance, banks involved in the transaction conduct the due diligence and recoup the costs through fees charged during the transaction and funding process.
