Oaklins’ team in India presented a compelling case of underwriting based on locked-in offtake and feedstock prices. It demonstrated the group’s collection ability, performance and conduct prior to and after the challenging periods it faced. The team placed a significant part of the debt of the total project cost in a highly cost-efficient manner, with repayments linked to the cash flow of the project. This was yet another demonstration of its ability to leverage its market reputation to communicate transaction merits with prospective lenders, placing high quality dislocated credit with high quality discerning lenders at optimum costs for borrowers.
