Course Outline

Funding ranks as one of the greatest challenges faced by nation-states building sustainable infrastructure. The delivery of environmental and social (E&S) objectives demands levels of financing that cannot be met by national governments and development banks alone.

Projects and other initiatives must increasingly be structured to facilitate the participation of commercial banks and investors, and source the level of financing that is urgently required to transition to greener economies and deliver other E&S goals.

Through comprehensive technical coverage and relevant case studies, this highly practical programme looks carefully at the key issues surrounding the successful structuring and arrangement of, and participation in, financing of sustainable economic initiatives. This course will explore the measurement of E&S impact and the capital structuring of existing firms and special purpose vehicles. It also looks at the sources of revenue generation for the parties involved, such as fees and carbon credits, as well as net interest income.
