International project funding: financing model

Back in the 18th and 19th centuries, England underwent a massive modernization of the road network, using tolls as the main source of repayment of borrowed funds for Italian banks. The development of transport infrastructure, electricity and communications in the 19th century required active participation of private capital, laying the foundation for international project funding in Europe. According to the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, international project financing (PF) is a form of financing the construction of capital facilities based on debt repayment through cash flows generated by the facility.

Project finance as a concept based on the participation of private capital in the implementation of large scale public projects has more than 200 years of history.

The age-old desire of business to go beyond the possible in search of new sources of income leads to the creation of unprecedented masterpieces of technical and engineering thought.

In 2015 alone, PF accounted for several hundred projects worth about $ 275 billion worldwide.

The largest private banks and international project funding institutions, such as the EIB and  EBRD, use PF instruments in their activities.

CP Finance UK provides alternative funding for international investment projects by providing a long-term loans from €50 million on flexible terms.

We also offer a full range of engineering, organizational and legal services for large businesses anywhere in the world.

The experience of recent decades shows that international project finance is applicable to many investment projects. PF can be used both in the real sector of the economy and for large-scale financial projects.

International project financing allows you to attract significantly more funds in comparison with traditional funding models
International project financing: Funding prospects

The bank is confident that a particular company will limit its activities to specific investments only and that the possibilities for securing claims and meeting them are significant.

International project financing: funding model

A wide range of project financing contractual options allows the initiator to share risks with foreign partners and ensures more efficient project implementation compared to traditional funding methods.

The main advantage of the PF is non-recourse financing, which allows companies to use a high level of leverage without burdening financial statements with high levels of debt.

International project financing refers to the cross-border method of realizing capital intensive investments through a legally and financially independent project company (SPV).

International project funding is an innovative business finance model. The PF offers members unique benefits that attract lenders despite the lack of collateral.

International project financing allows you to attract significantly more funds in comparison with traditional funding models.

Banks’ requirements also include extensive financial, legal and technical analysis of the project.

This is a flexible organizational structure, which primarily allows the companies that initiate the project to obtain loans based on the future income projected from the project.

SPV in international practice is an independent business entity, and all relations with the project participants follow from the general principles of law, concluded agreements and contracts.

The SPV (SPE) has ownership of the assets being funded and the sponsor is not financially liable for the debt of this entity (unless it has provided appropriate guarantees).

In many cases, companies prefer joint stock companies or limited liability companies, which have a number of advantages for the initiating companies. In such companies, the participants are liable for the debts of the project solely within the framework of their contribution to the capital of the SPV or its shares.

The global project finance market present and past

Leading investors, consultants and lenders have projects from different countries in their portfolio and successfully use the practical experience gained in other similar projects.

Today, trends are changing again, fueled by geopolitical tensions and unpredictability that have affected a number of regions of the planet and even industries.

The global financial crisis caused a sharp reduction in lending to government projects and contributed to a shift in project activity towards China and other Asian countries. If in the countries of the Americas, the PF volume in 2015 reached $ 95 billion, while in the developing countries of Asia, the Pacific region and Japan, projects worth $ 75 billion were implemented.

However, government projects have repeatedly demonstrated high resilience to financial shocks.

The use of PF has helped to maintain growth in Latin America, Africa, South and East Asia.

This confirms that international project finance is most effective for developing countries with weak business infrastructure and high external capital requirements.

Project finance and long term investment loans in Malaysia.

The most famous small Asian country with great opportunities is Malaysia. The country has undergone a dizzying transformation over the past half century from a backward agrarian economy to one of the most advanced countries in Southeast Asia. With an economically active population of just over 10 million, Malaysia’s GDP exceeds $ 350 billion and continues to show strong growth. Investment and Project finance in Malaysia plays an extremely prominent role in this transformation of the region.

By relying on new technologies and advanced financial instruments, this country reduces its dependence on oil resources, conquers new markets day after day and looks confidently into the future.

Capital-intensive projects such as the Pengerang refinery, as well as the Pan Borneo Highway, Mass Rapid Transit 2 infrastructure projects are shaping the future of Malaysia using project finance tools and large overseas investments.

CP Finance UK, an international financial company, is ready to offer you with financing for an implementation of the most daring and ambitious investment projects.

We provide investment and project finance in Malaysia and countries of Southeast Asia, as well as comprehensive support for your projects.

Project finance in Malaysia: historical overview

The energy sector in Southeast Asia has absorbed most of these advances. It should be noted that Malaysia and its neighbors were the first markets where the first projects of “financial investors” were successfully implemented.

The oil and gas sector also plays an important role in the Malaysian economy, and local companies are investing heavily in oil production and the expansion of the local oil refining complex.

Analysis of the Asian market for large investment projects using project financing methods is of interest for several reasons.

Firstly, Malaysia, Indonesia, China and other countries of the Asian region have occupied more than half of the global project finance market in just 20 years, from the 1990s to the early 2010s.

Secondly, the development of this market was carried out on the basis of “imported” concepts of project finance, mainly originating from the United States.

Today, one of the striking examples is the unique Pengerang Refining and Petrochemical Integrated Refinery, which has a value of $ 21 billion. 

The Islamic financial market plays an important role in financing large investment projects in Malaysia.

In particular, the issuance of Sukuk (the Islamic analogue of bonds) is very popular among local companies.

The issuance of Sukuk in Malaysia reaches 30% of the global volume of this type of bond issue, which puts this country on the list of leaders in Islamic finance.

Transition to an innovative economy of Malaysia

In the 1990s, a lot of events took place in the financial world.

Thus, we have seen the rise and fall of commercial energy projects, as well as a slowdown in the development of private finance initiative (PFI).

Over the past 30 years, project finance in Malaysia has become a trend, contributing to the dynamic development of the local economy and the expansion of the presence of foreign companies. In general, the international character of project finance began to appear on the Asian market, which was accompanied by the implementation of numerous international pilot projects in energy, infrastructure and other areas.

The development of project finance in Malaysia and Southeast Asian countries has become a catalyst for the growth of the market for innovations in energy, IT and public infrastructure. The last stage in the development of PF in the region is distinguished by the transition to advanced capital-intensive projects of an innovative nature. These can be innovative infrastructure, industrial facilities, solar power plants or projects related to alternative energy.

In recent years, Asian players, including strong Malay companies, have begun to make more active use of PF tools.

Implementing important national projects (infrastructure projects, development of natural resources and power generation) and possessing significant assets, local companies aggressively enter the global project market.

The role of project finance in the economy of Malaysia

Project finance is an innovative way of organizing the financing of an investment project, requiring the initiators to create a new legally separate company (SPV, SPE) for the implementation of this project.

The future cash flows generated by such a company will guarantee debt service and the return of borrowed funds, and the distribution of project risks is carried out between the parties involved in its implementation and most prepared to cover certain risks.

Investment and project finance in Malaysia is peculiar, providers use (equity, debt, derivatives) and other financial instruments other types of contracts to finance a project.

The most important feature of the PF is that the project sponsor does not provide its own assets as collateral, shifting all responsibility for the project’s debts to the SPV.

The latter feature makes it possible to classify PF as one of the most risky forms of financing from the point of view of lenders. This requires a thorough analysis of the project and the development of an effective system of contractual relations, adapted to the risks and needs of the specific project.

The main advantage of investment and project finance for Malaysia is the ability to concentrate significant financial resources on solving a specific business problem, and to localize project risks at SPV.
