Mastering Finance-Linked Swaps: A Definitive Guide to Principles, Practice & Precedents (Market Editions)

It is rare today that a project lender, property development financier, PFI banker, MBO debt provider or securitisation investor does not insist on its borrower taking out some form of interest rate and/or cross-currency hedging. By and large, however, the implications of integrating a swap into a structured financing are little understood and often ignored. At best, current practice is often misrepresentative and lax. "Mastering Finance-linked Swaps" is the first book to offer clear, detailed, practical guidance on the key commercial, operational, legal and documentation issues that arise. It will provide lenders, swap providers, borrowers, finance consultants and lawyers with the confidence and technical ability to ask the right questions at the right time, and to ensure that, whatever the nature of the financing, the swap is correctly integrated into the structure.
