Financing

Financing pathways structured around lender requirements

BHL prepares projects for export credit, institutional and private capital, with structures tailored to the commercial, technical and financial requirements of each transaction.

Sources of capital

Three principal financing pathways

The appropriate pathway — or combination of pathways — is determined by project scope, counterparty profile and the requirements of participating institutions.

Export Credit Financing

Financing pathways supported by export credit agencies, aligned to internationally sourced EPC scope, equipment supply and engineering capability.

Institutional Capital

Engagement with development finance and institutional lenders whose mandates align with infrastructure, industrialization and social impact outcomes.

Private Capital

Private, syndicated and strategic capital introduced where the transaction structure, risk allocation and returns profile support it.

Qualification

Project qualification threshold

  • Standard threshold of €10 million and above in total project value.
  • Smaller projects may be aggregated or bundled into a qualifying transaction.
  • Projects between €7 million and €9.99 million may be considered exceptionally, subject to strategic relevance, viability and lender discretion.

Risk mitigation

Credit enhancement & guarantees

BHL works with sponsors to arrange appropriate credit support guarantees and other credit enhancement solutions backed by reputable financial institutions, A-rated international reinsurers, sovereign entities or other acceptable providers, subject to lender requirements.

Appropriate credit enhancement can improve bankability and may substantially reduce or eliminate traditional collateral requirements. This outcome cannot be guaranteed and depends on the structure adopted and the requirements of the participating institutions.

All financing outcomes remain subject to eligibility, due diligence, lender requirements, credit approval and final structuring. Nothing on this page constitutes an offer or commitment to provide finance.
