Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) are experiencing a renewed surge in Australia, driven by a record $200b+ infrastructure pipeline, a focus on net-zero transition and urgent national transport, water and housing development targets.

Last week, MBB Associate Director, Alex Li-Kim-Mui and Manager, Ben Allen-Gdanitz, attended the Understanding Project Finance, PPPs and Project Financing Course run by the International Project Finance Association (IPFA).

Part of an MBB-sponsored learning initiative, this immersive, practitioner-led course provided Alex and Ben with a deeper, comprehensive understanding of the Australian PPP project lifecycle, further developing their existing skills in project financing and structuring complex transactions.

Together with ongoing mentoring from highly experienced MBB project professionals, this investment in skills development will help them provide deeper capability for our clients and further develop their own careers.

MBB Regional Director (NSW), James Woods noted, “Investing in our people is a core focus. As governments and private clients look to leverage private capital for infrastructure development in a high-cost environment, our team’s expertise in alternative commercial models is being sought to mitigate risk and improve value for money.”
