Features: Over the past half-century, project financing has been widely used as a new financing method globally. In China, since the Shajiao Power Plant in Shenzhen was constructed using project financing, nearly two decades have passed. In China, project financing refers to the establishment of a special project company by the project sponsor for the purpose of financing and operating the project. This book organically combines the rich practice of project financing in China with Chinese legal practice, elaborating on it from a legal perspective. It analyzes the characteristics of project financing, dissects the project investment structure under Chinese law, proposes countermeasures to mitigate project financing risks, and systematically discusses common project financing loan agreements, project financing guarantee structures, and key points in drafting domestic project financing guarantee agreements in China, which include many insightful observations.
