Financial Advisory

In the U.S., LeighFisher is recognized as a leader in preparing financial feasibility reports supporting the issuance of bonds to finance airport capital projects, both in the number and value of financings. In the UK and Europe, government organizations seek our advice on innovative funding structures. We have helped a number of clients with public infrastructure financings in both the private and public sectors. This breadth of experience enables us to devise financing strategies and meet the most demanding financing requirements and schedules.

Our clients engage us because the need for financial advisory services complements a restructuring, rationalization or regeneration program. Our government clients are some of the largest investors in infrastructure projects and require financial options appraisals, and feasibility studies in which we can also combine our technical and commercial proficiency to address the concerns of funding sponsoring departments or institutions. Working closely with officials, investment bankers, legal advisors, we develop financing plans, assess financial fundamentals, and forecast key financial measures, including debt service coverage ratios. With the expected surge in property refinancings over the next 2-3 years, LeighFisher is ideally placed to advise and broker solutions for governmental and related bodies which seek professional input. In our other sectors, Rating agency and other investment analysts rely on our analyses in their assessments, reflecting our strong reputation for producing high-quality, comprehensive financial feasibility reports.
