📢 One week to go! Project Finance Techniques: Trends in Emerging Markets As emerging market economies seek building large-scale projects crucial for regional development, project finance ("PF") appears as a tried and tested method across multiple jurisdictions. The most suitable PF technique is determined based on a number of factors like the sector, financing mix, institutions involved and the government support available for the project, with risk-mitigation and allocation being key drivers for most of the decision-making. Join us as we take a look at non-recourse structures implemented in MENA, Turkey and Central Asia, Middle East, Africa; and discuss key growth sectors and upcoming regional trends. Discussion Points: - Is non-recourse financing a myth for emerging markets – who bears the country risk? - What role does project finance play in energy transition? - Large-scale infrastructure financing in emerging markets: Lessons learned and next steps. - What needs to be considered by governments & project sponsors at the outset to ensure a smooth implementation?   Moderator:   Nicholas Wong, Partner, Clifford Chance Speakers: - Opening speaker: Sait Eryılmaz, Partner, CIFTCI Attorney Partnership  - Naci Can, Board Member of Çalık Enerji Swiss and Project Finance & Treasury Director of Çalık Enerji - Burcu Geris, Deputy CEO and CFO of TAV Airports Holding - EMRE HATEM, Board Member at Rönesans Holding & Rönesans Enerji - Mohamed Kharbat, Executive Director, J.P.

📢Speakers Announced! Overcoming financing challenges for green hydrogen projects - Where next with a new government? Despite announcing ambitious targets and support for the production of green hydrogen, projects in the UK face significant risks in meeting their target start-up dates. Lenders are cautious, citing bankability challenges related to project valuations, offtake certainty, and revenue support for transport and storage as their main concerns around investing in green hydrogen. Join us for a fruitful discussion on the future of green hydrogen under a new government, where our panel will delve into the government's priorities for green hydrogen production, transport, and storage; the challenges developers face and ways to overcome them; and how lenders’ expectations are evolving and what’s needed to boost green hydrogen development. Speakers: Moderator: Saloni Kapoor, Grant Thornton UK LLP - Sofia Faqir, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (ESNZ) - Jacob Kane, Arup - Aline Ingram, POTEN & PARTNERS - Helen Gray, Pinsent Masons 📅 – Wednesday 25 September, 2024 🌏 – Grant Thornton, 30 Finsbury Square, London EC2A 1AG 🕓 – 5.00pm Register now: https://lnkd.in/evtegRbm Not an IPFA Member?
