Greenstock's work with the financial markets most often involves the solicitation and negotiation of "project" financing whereby the ability of the individual project to operate successfully, rather than a "deep pocket" owner with other assets, is the only source of repayment to lenders and return on investment to equity owners. Project fixed assets are valuable as security only when being utilized by a successful business.
Greenstock's knowledge and experience in technical and marketing issues and the requirements of the financial community allows us to carefully structure the contractual underpinnings of a successful project financing. We know what needs to be present to attract the lending community and understand the various risk factors and risk management tools that need to be recognized and utilized to protect both owners and creditors.
Certain of Greenstock's project financing activities are carried out in conjunction with our long-time relationship with Ecoban Finance Limited (www.ecoban.com). Ecoban is a leading non-bank trade finance and corporate advisory company based in New York City that specializes in emerging market transactions and structured trade finance. Founded in 1967, Ecoban today serves clients throughout the world with imaginative, practical solutions to financial challenges. The group's principal focus is on the origination and placement of secured or unsecured trade related finance transactions, and on countertrade and offset services.
We understand how to makes a project "bankable" and then how and where to present it to obtain the necessary capital.
