Experience

This involves building and auditing models for a range of deals including PFI/PPP transportation and social infrastructures, waste deals, the acquisition and refinancing of natural resource assets, port acquisitions, the financing of telecommunication networks, and the development of renewable energy sources.I have worked on transactions located in Asia, Africa, and the Americas but the largest portion of my work is on PFI/PPP type deals in developed markets such as the UK, Canada and the rest of Europe.Specific modelling skills that I have include the calculation of project cash flows, working capital, VAT, financing cash flows (including financing via index linked bonds), DSCRs, LLCRs, model lock-ups, IRRs, reserve accounts, order of payments, and ensuring models conform to the legal documents (project agreements, credit agreements, FM contracts etc).
