Principles of project and infrastructure finance
This book arises from my lecture notes in the Development Finance module taught to students studying for the Master of Science (Project Management) degree at the National University of Singapore (NUS). These students came from many disciplines including architecture, building, business, construction, engineering, and information technology. Currently, there is no similar book on development finance that treats the subject from a project manager?s perspective. I have planned to write this book in response to many requests from my students for a suitable textbook, and one that is concise. They find that many books in the market are repetitive. Students also like to read books that explain abstract concepts clearly. My procrastination ended when Tony Moore, Senior Editor at Taylor & Francis Group, suggested that I should find time to start writing a book and stop preaching. The features of the book include x an early emphasis on discounting to provide a firm grasp of the mechanics of project financing; x establishing the link between corporate strategy and projects; x providing a firm foundation on full recourse corporate finance; x a concise write-up on the project development cycle; x benefit-cost analysis to address environmental and third-party externalities as well as market distortions in social projects; x in-depth analysis of limited recourse project finance; x real option pricing and other derivatives; x a framework for risk management; and x case studies on four different types of projects, namely, power projects, airport projects, commercial real estate developments, and chemical storage projects. The case studies are used to illustrate aspects of large-scale infrastructure projects and focuses on how the nexus of contracts, agreements, bonds, guarantees, insurance, and other risk management strategies may not work effectively in different sectors. The book is intended for graduate and senior undergraduate students, researchers, and parties involved in project finance including company directors, project managers, lenders, lawyers, architects, contractors, engineers, quantity surveyors, regulators, suppliers, insurers, and investors. Friends and colleagues at the Project Management Institute (PMI), International Project Management Education Union (IPMEU), and Center for Project Management and Construction Law at NUS provided useful formal and informal feedback. In particular, I would like to thank the following persons and reviewers:
