Project Finance

NLF Consultancy’s Project Finance practice provides end-to-end advisory for the structuring, arrangement, and management of debt financing for large-scale infrastructure, industrial, energy, and real estate projects — primarily on a non-recourse or limited-recourse basis.

Project finance transactions are structurally complex, requiring careful alignment of cash flows, security packages, lender covenants, and construction risk allocation. Our team brings deep experience in designing structures that satisfy lender requirements while preserving maximum operational flexibility for the project sponsor.

We work with project sponsors, developers, and infrastructure companies across greenfield and brownfield projects — managing the full process from financial modelling and structure design through to lender syndication and financial close.

What We Offer

Non-Recourse Project Finance

Structuring and arranging non-recourse debt for infrastructure, energy, and industrial projects where repayment depends solely on project cash flows.

Construction Finance

Arranging construction-phase financing including bridge loans, construction lines, and phased drawdown structures for large developments.

Infrastructure Debt Syndication

Syndicating project debt across multiple banks and financial institutions — managing the arranger role from mandate through to disbursement.

Financial Modelling

Building detailed project finance models covering cash flow projections, debt service, DSCR analysis, and sensitivity testing under various scenarios.

Lender Due Diligence Support

Coordinating with lender technical advisors, legal counsel, and insurance consultants to facilitate efficient lender due diligence.

Refinancing of Operational Projects

Advising on refinancing existing project debt to improve terms, extend tenure, or release equity value from operational assets.

Our Process
  • Project Assessment
    We review the project structure, technology, off-take arrangements, and cash flow profile to assess debt capacity and optimal financing structure.
  • Financial Model & Structure Design
    We build the project finance model, size the debt, and design the tranche structure, security package, and covenant framework.
  • Information Memorandum
    We prepare a comprehensive Information Memorandum for lender presentation—covering project description, financial projections, and risk mitigation.
  • Lender Syndication
    We approach and manage a syndicate of lenders, coordinating term sheet negotiations, due diligence, and credit approval processes.
  • Financial Close
    We manage conditions precedent, legal documentation, and drawdown mechanics to achieve financial close on schedule.
