The world of project finance has undergone significant changes in the post-pandemic era. Mufg Project Finance has been navigating these trends with expertise.
Private equity investments in infrastructure projects have seen a significant surge, reaching $143 billion in 2020. This trend is expected to continue as investors seek stable returns.
Innovative financing structures, such as green bonds and infrastructure investment trusts, are gaining traction. These structures offer a unique way to fund projects while promoting sustainability.
Mufg Project Finance is well-positioned to capitalize on these trends, leveraging its experience and expertise in project finance.
Infrastructure
MUFG's infrastructure team advises on and arranges complex financial solutions for projects related to digital and transport infrastructure, energy from waste, wastewater treatment, and social housing finance.
We specialize in these areas because they offer stable revenue even in times of economic fluctuations. This is a key reason why MUFG has become a market leader in project financing for infrastructure and energy-related projects.
MUFG's expertise in this field has been recognized by Project Finance International, which named us "Global Bank of the Year" in 2022.
John F. Kennedy Airport Expansion Project
The John F. Kennedy Airport Expansion Project is a major infrastructure development in the United States. In June 2022, MUFG signed a project finance agreement to support the expansion of New Terminal One at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.
The project will redevelop the existing Terminals One and Two into a single integrated terminal, catering to the growing number of users. This will make it easier for travelers to navigate the airport.
The total deal value is USD6.6 billion, approximately ¥880.0 billion. MUFG acted as both Financial Advisor and Lead-Left Bookrunner in this deal.
Financing for infrastructure and energy-related projects is more likely to bring stable revenue even amid economic fluctuations. MUFG has long been a market leader in this field.
In recognition of their initiatives, MUFG was chosen as “Global Bank of the Year” by Project Finance International (PFI) in 2022.
