Trade Review"This book provides a concise, accurate, and updated context of project finance. Not only it is a favoured reference for project entrepreneurs, financial controllers and government regulators, but it is also a highly recommended reading for students in business and civil engineering." --Shiguang Ma, University of Wollongong "Yescombe’s book is the best compendium of project finance concepts I know of. Principles is a detailed 'cook-book' for organizing project financings, comprehensive in its description of risks, contracts, and project participants, including sponsors, capital providers, and public and multinational institutions." --Ray Hill, Emory University "This book is clear enough for the novice and comprehensive enough for the expert. It covers all areas in project finance and does so precisely. It is a must for anyone looking to get into project finance." --Alfonso Canella, Brandeis University "E.R. Yescombe’s new edition of Principles of Project Finance is a state-of-the-art, comprehensive overview, with detailed and balanced coverage of the economic, financial, and legal dimensions of project finance. The book is full of relevant case studies and practical advice to make project financing work in the post-financial crisis environment." --John S. Strong, College of William and Mary
