The revised 6th edition of Euromoney's best-selling text book is an invaluable manual which should be on every project financier's desk. Written by Frank Fabozzi and Peter Nevitt, this 380-page edition still covers the key criteria for success: choosing financial advisors and banks, types and sources of equity and debt, financial instruments, lease versus purchase, commercial paper, swaps and interest rate futures, and political risk and guarantees. In addition, all data has been updated, including new bank league tables. New sections include: countries which have set up project financing departments, a revision of the section on credit risk appraisal to reflect the latest credit ratings of all the recognised rating agencies, discussion of the risk-based capital requirements for banks, an extensive update on the latest instruments used in the global market, analysis of Rule 144A in the US and its implications for project financing and revisions of all tax and legal regulations.
