Abstract: Abstracts The project finance topic, even if it is a well-known subject for many practitioners, is still a very complex financing process with many peculiarities not always entirely understood by non-specialists. According to Basel II Capital Accord project finance is defined as one of the five subclasses of specialized lending activity. In this sense, it is a very specific lending business with its own rules and procedures. For this reason, banks tend to create within their organization dedicated business units with specialized resources and competences. Hence, there is a need to provide a general overview that can cover not only the main features of project finance but also more detailed aspects such as the public-private partnership (PPP) scheme or the critical differences between Greenfield and Brownfield projects.
