Description
Welcome to the 2021 edition of ICLG - Project Finance. As the contributing editor, I am absolutely delighted to introduce the latest edition of this comprehensive global guide to international project finance.
Notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic, project finance activity has continued across the world, with some remarkable projects achieving financial close despite the significant challenges. With the curtailment of international travel, principals and their advisers had to adapt quickly to Zoom, Webex and other means of conducting virtual meetings. However, many projects have been delayed and disrupted by the global health emergency and it is still unclear when normal business will resume. By and large, the legal profession has responded well to the new challenges and has continued to facilitate the development and financing of projects totalling billions of dollars, whilst assisting clients to overcome many additional complex issues arising from the crisis.
Like the prior editions, this guide provides valuable guidance and insights into the complex legal issues which arise in the context of project financings in 25 different jurisdictions. Adopting a Q&A format, the chapters address each legal system's approach to the questions which are commonly encountered in the context of project financings. It also includes two expert analysis chapters, the first of which considers why the world needs project finance (and of course project finance lawyers!).
I am truly honoured to be part of this group of distinguished specialists to provide this authoritative guide, and I would like to thank all of the contributors for sharing their deep knowledge and expertise. I very much hope that you enjoy consulting the guide and that you will find it to be useful and insightful.
