PROJECT FINANCE

Project finance is gaining momentum in Nepal especially for the long term infrastructure, energy and industrial projects. However, as a least developed economy, Nepal has its own country risk profile coupled with the lack of robust legal infrastructure required for project finance deals.

Pioneer Law advises various players involved in project finance deals ranging from the local and foreign financiers, investment funds, sponsors, to the government agencies and concessionaires. Pioneer Law advises on project finance deals in different sector of industries ranging from hydropower to hospitality, and infrastructure to industrial project.

On the project finance front, Pioneer law primarily provides following services: (a) overview of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to project finance ranging from foreign exchange regulation to securitization, (b) due diligence of the project; (c) advice on legal and regulatory risks associated with the project finance deals, (d) drafting and review of the financing and security documents, (e) assisting the clients in filing and recording the security interests with the relevant registry and obtaining the applicable government authorizations, and (f) advice on the enforcement actions and measures.
