Our Project Development and Finance Practice offers market-leading experience advising on legal matters related to project structuring, development and financing. Our team has consistently demonstrated our ability to work with multiple sponsors and lenders on complex multi-sourced projects to successfully deliver "bankable" structures that bring projects to a successful conclusion. We have advised on some of the largest and most prominent project development and finance transactions in Indonesia, the Asia-Pacific region and around the world. This experience has given us a keen appreciation of the concerns affecting sponsors and financial institutions, and their approach to project financings.
