Investment Financing: Principles and Lending Options.

Investments remains a backbone in the formation of any business. They are a key factor in carrying out business activities, improving product quality, reducing costs and ensuring the competitiveness of a modern enterprise.

Investment financing at the global level can influence the gross domestic product of entire countries, reduce unemployment and ensure macroeconomic equilibrium.

Finally, economic growth is achieved by investing in specific activities. Investments in promising new facilities such as solar power plants, wind farms or waste processing plants provide the investor with substantial income and capital gains over the long term.

A feature of any investment is its return to the investor in an increased amount. At the same time, the potential return on investment should correspond to the risk of a particular project.

The success of an investment depends on many factors: the economic situation, the efficiency of markets, access to capital, knowledge and skills for investing, and much more. All other things being equal, knowledge and skills are crucial for finding successful investment ideas, developing them, evaluating and comparing investment alternatives.

Investment financing and project management is a serious challenge for companies that are implementing large projects these days. Sources of low-cost funds are essential for ensuring the efficiency and quality of projects in such economic sectors as renewable energy, infrastructure, environmental protection, industry and agriculture.

Investment Financing: Basic Principles and Options

The conditions of the project and the nature for its implementation determine the choice of instruments and sources of financing for the investment project. External funding sources can be private or public partners. The state usually provides funds for the implementation of socially significant projects from the national and local budgets.

The most commonly used investment financing options are bank loans and loans from international financial institutions, syndicated loans, bonds, hybrid securities and others. Partners can be banks, corporate and private investors, international financial institutions and others. Grants from European foundations and international programs are also an important source of long-term financing for projects in the European Union.

Factors Influencing the Choice of Investment Financing Options:

•Risks. It is important from the very beginning of a project to clearly assign responsibility for its success or failure.

•Financing as a package of services. The provision of comprehensive services related to the allocation of money, construction, equipment supply and operation of a new facility can be carried out by one large company.

•Benefits for the funder. Lending involves the payment of interest. If investors finance a specific project, they expect a certain return.

•The right time for financing in the context of the life cycle of the company and the specific investment project.

• The technical level of the companies participating in the project. Investment financing is based on several basic principles, including the principle of division of competences, the principle of equality of participants, the principle of additional financing, the principle of reasonable concentration of funds, and some others. We propose to consider the listed principles in more detail.

There are also various classifications of sources of financing for investment projects. Depending on the origin, funds are internal and external (the latter received from banks, investment funds or other partners). Based on the organizational structure, all sources of funding can be divided into centralized and decentralized. In most cases, large energy and infrastructure projects are funded from a variety of sources.

Sources of Financing for Investment Business Projects

External financing instruments for investment projects are widely used at different stages of development. In a broad sense, they are divided into several large groups:

• Debt financing.
• Equity financing.
• Public funding. Debt financing is a flexible and rather attractive way of providing the necessary financial resources for the implementation of projects. Debt financing is allocated from resources collected in financial markets, such as bank loans, syndicated loans or bond issues.

Examples of major global financial institutions that finance investment projects include JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank. Our company works closely with reputable banks in Spain and other EU countries to provide you with the best investment financing options for each project.

Bond Loans; An alternative Source of financing for investment Projects.

It is most relevant for large multi-billion dollar projects for which the banking sector does not offer sufficient liquidity. A number of energy, environmental and infrastructure projects are funded through bond issues, and timely interest and principal payments are usually guaranteed by insurance companies.

The main role of the latter is to provide credit guarantees to bondholders. As a result of the provision of a guarantee, bonds receive a high credit rating, which reduces the cost of borrowed funds for business.

An attractive feature of the bond market is the wide availability of long-term financing. This not only makes the implementation of projects cheaper compared to bank financing, but also makes it possible to extend the maturity of the project debt, which, in turn, significantly improves the economic performance of the project.

On the other hand, bond financing also has several disadvantages. Bondholders have certain powers, although they may not touch upon such issues as significant changes in the project schedule, documentation, etc. The entire amount is provided to the investor only upon approval of the project contract and accompanying documentation. In some cases, the last condition does not satisfy the recipient.

Regardless of the financial instruments used, debt financing of investment projects has a number of advantages. It makes it possible to quickly launch large projects with strong financial plans and shift some of the debt burden to future users of the product or service. It is also necessary to take into account the disadvantages of debt financing of investments.

One of them is a long period of interest payments, which can be up to 15 years or more. The ability of business to react flexibly to changes in economic conditions, political priorities, income levels and other factors is extremely limited in this case.

Project finance also has certain disadvantages associated with complex and long-term actions to develop a financial package and high costs of these activities. Also, this model is characterized by the presence of numerous risks arising from a large number of contractual relationships. Project finance is associated with high interest and debt service fees, additional regulatory procedures with varying impact on the investment project as a whole.
