Project Finance
The Practice
The Arthur Cox Project Finance practice forms part of the firm’s broader Projects Group. Our project finance experience includes transactions financed through syndicated debt; debt capital markets; securitisations; joint ventures; and secondary market sales of equity interests.
Our project finance expertise is complemented by our strength in related practice areas including procurement, construction, regulatory compliance and corporate. With leading banking and financial services practices in Dublin and Belfast, Arthur Cox has the largest Banking and Finance Practice on the island of Ireland and is involved in an extensive range of limited recourse finance projects for a wide variety of clients, both domestic and international. We are consistently at the forefront of the development of project finance and, in particular, the Public Private Partnerships (PPP) and Energy and Resources sectors.
The project finance market in Ireland and Northern Ireland has evolved rapidly from limited recourse property-related transactions to a series of innovative financings in the energy, natural resources, health, justice, education, transport, accommodation and infrastructure sectors. In addition, the Asset Covered Securities Act 2001 has facilitated the growth of covered bonds and securitisation of portfolios of qualifying project finance loans in Ireland. The strength of the firm’s banking and capital markets practices combined with our specialist sectoral expertise across key areas such as construction and employment law has enabled Arthur Cox to build a skilled team of versatile project finance lawyers.
