Wright Legal Presentation on Financing for Resources and Corporate Debt Transactions

Wright Legal Directors Dom McGreal and Trish Chapman recently enjoyed presenting on the issues and solutions in financing for resources and corporate debt transactions. They highlighted that, with a little foresight, obstacles in the pathway to closing deals can be sidestepped.

They covered the following topics:

Third party consents
Equity 'gap' funding
Corporate structures and hedging
Conditionality for offtake
M&A proofing your financing documents
Asset financing, metal streaming with other alternative financing
Debt pricing considerations.
