PPP Financial Modeling and Legal Analysis
COURSE OBJECTIVES
NEW! Analyzing and modeling project documents including RFP, Project Agreements, Guaranteed Price
Contracts, Lenders' Direct Agreements, Value-for-Money Reports, etc.
People do not sign models - They sign the contracts that those models represent. Public-Private Partnership
Financial Modeling and Legal Analysis is a Vair Training Master Class and focuses uniquely on international PPP
projects and their related modeling issues. After reviewing some basic elements that separate PPP from
traditional infrastructure and project financing, the participants are given a full suite of project documents and
macroeconomic information that are indicative to infrastructure projects. This is followed by a step-by-step
procedure of building a complex model for a concessionaire bid. This phase of the course demonstrates how to
dovetail contracts and shows that nothing in PPP is mutually exclusive.
Once completed, the delegates review the model from a due-diligence analysis, usually taken from a government,
lender or third-party equity perspective. The final phase of this module uses sophisticated model techniques to
help the practitioner “price the deal” and “negotiate off the financial model”. Special consideration is given to
more advanced PPP issues like liquidated-damages analysis, drop-down and direct agreements, and appropriate
security packages. The course’s overriding theme is to use the model as a highly-developed financial analysis
tool that reviews the appropriate risk-versus-reward profiles of project finance. This is an advanced course and is
geared to the intermediate-to-advanced delegate.
