Testimonials
I would like to praise your firm for preparing such an exceptional course. I have enjoyed going through the course material and completing the tests. In parallel, our company has just reached a financial close on its first project finance project. Some of your checklists were our practical guidance. Victoria Egorova – Excelerate Energy
The building block approach made it really easy for me to build an otherwise quite complex model. The step by step instructions and detailed explanations of all the formulae are a great reference. - Garth Alvares Consultant, Transport industry, Australia
The illustrative, case study and quiz-based approach to training provides a good foundation for developing an understanding of the key structuring, modelling and documentation aspects of project financings. Navodit Narain, CFO, Endeavour Energy
