Moody’s
Project & Infrastructure Finance team in Australia continues to maintain
comprehensive coverage of this evolving market. We are expertly positioned to
examine and rate project and infrastructure finance deals in Australia and across the region, with
analyst teams located in Sydney, Hong Kong and Tokyo.
When our Project Finance
team approaches a deal, it uses a powerful mix of fundamental and structured analysis
along with sovereign risk evaluations. For each individual deal, our analysts
can identify key risk factors and their appropriate weightings. The result is
unique, incisive and unrivalled analysis. In other words, we do not employ
cookie-cutter techniques, or assign ratings solely on a set of ratios applied
unilaterally across different deals. We know that no two deals are alike.
Today Moody’s rates more
than 260 transactions in global project finance. Our ratings coverage of
infrastructure financing covers 35 countries. This includes a number of
transactions in Asia Pacific in Australian, China, Indonesia, and Thailand. Furthermore, our international
experience and methodology ensures the direct global comparability of our
Asia-Pacific ratings.
Moody's global Project
& Infrastructure Finance team offers several products that provide our
constituents with ratings and in-depth research on project financings before
they enter the capital markets as well as ongoing monitoring of the projects
during construction and operations. Included in the service are pre-sale
reports by fax, e-mail, and on Moodys.com. We also hold pre-sale conference
calls that provide investors with direct access to the Moody's analysts
involved in rating each project. Conferences and Investor Briefings are held
each year with Moody's project analysts from all relevant sectors.
