Al Dur Integrated Water & Power Project, Bahrain, 2009, $231 Million Finance for $1.3 Billion Project

Occurring in the wake of the Global Financial Crisis (GFA) of 2008, the Al Dur financing required – for the first time ever in an export credit agency (ECA) finance – required management of refinancing risk.  After commercial lenders were unable to extend long-term financing envisaged prior to the GFA, ECA financing filled the financing gap under an innovative financing structure that accommodated short-term commercial finance, which anticipated future refinancing and potential refinancing difficulties.  Financial close occurred with five months of the date of Ex-Im Bank application
