Financing Large Projects is one of the most comprehensive books written on the art of project finance. Project finance is a technique employed for the purpose of mobilizing capital for very large start-up projects, or greenfields, based on the cash flow merits of the project--usually with little or no external support provided by parent companies in the form of guarantees. Unlike other books, this one addresses the financial, technical, legal and environmental aspects of financing complex projects. In explaining the principles involved, the authors followed the project development cycle illustrating how projects are evolved from inception, usually through international competitive bidding, to financial closure when all debt and equity needed to construct and operate the project that has been mobilized.
The book is particularly thorough in explaining the criteria used by bankers and lawyers to distinguish projects that are bank-able from those that are not. It has some good sections, particularly apt for banking professionals, on the intricacies of international law as it impinges on project finance.

Mr. Parra is a banker, by profession, with 30-years experience about half of that dedicated to infrastructure--all acquired in Citibank and PricewaterhouseCoopers Securities LLC (PwCS). Since he joined PwCS in1990, Mr. Parra has been selected to lead several long-term engagements in Asia that are Project Finance related. Three of these involved the organization and operation of World Bank sponsored funds—namely, Pakistan (1990-92), Sri Lanka (1998-2000) and Bangladesh (1999-2002)—each of which was created to extend long-term loans to privately-owned and operated infrastructure projects. Collectively, about US$2.5 billion in investment has been realized by the three funds since their creation.
