Decision lens. Start by identifying the commercial objective, the evidence available and the risk that a licensed institution is being asked to accept. Product selection comes after that analysis.
Translate the concept into contracted cash flow
Lenders and investors assess who pays the project, under what contract, for how long and with what protections. Revenue visibility, cost certainty and enforceable obligations support debt capacity.
Allocate each risk to a capable party
Construction, completion, supply, offtake, operating, regulatory, currency and force-majeure risks should sit with parties able to manage them. Gaps eventually appear as pricing, conditions or reduced leverage.
Use the model as a decision system
The financial model should reconcile sources and uses, construction drawdown, operating assumptions, debt service and sensitivities. It must remain consistent with the contracts.
- Sponsor equity and source
- Permits, land and approvals
- EPC and operating arrangements
- Revenue contracts and downside sensitivities

Common questions
What finance teams ask first.
What makes a project bankable?
Bankability usually requires credible sponsors, permits, robust contracts, realistic economics, appropriate risk allocation and cash flow sufficient for debt service under tested scenarios.
Is project finance the same as corporate borrowing?
No. Project finance focuses primarily on the project company’s contracted cash flows and assets, although sponsor support may still be required.
What is MCV’s role?
MCV advises on structure, verifies the opportunity and presents it to relevant institutions. Capital is provided and approved by licensed funders or investors.
