Based in New York and San Francisco, the US public finance team works closely with state and local governments, and bankers and their advisors and consultants to provide the most efficient financing possible for important public services. Issuers benefit from our unmatched structuring and execution expertise, while investors gain liquidity and security.
US CIFG-insured transactions are rated investment grade before the benefit of CIFG’s financial guaranty, and may be insured on either a primary or secondary basis. The full range of transaction types is considered for CIFG insurance, from tax-backed, not-for-profit, utility and healthcare to transportation, housing, stadium and project finance.
Based in Paris and with a representative office in London, the European infrastructure team
provides protection on the full range of insurable public/private partnership (PPP), private finance initiative (PFI) and sovereign and sub-sovereign exposures. CIFG joins with professionals from arranging banks, financing banks, investors and project advisors to provide the capital markets the access needed to construct and maintain essential infrastructure and governmental services.
As in the US, CIFG’s European infrastructure and public finance transactions must be at least
investment grade before the benefit of our financial guaranty; the rating, however, can be either public or private (“shadow rating”). We work on the full range of insurable transactions, including water treatment, public utilities, toll road, airport, tunnel, public building and public debt (both sovereign and sub-sovereign exposures).
CIFG has no maximum or minimum transaction size, although each transaction is reviewed for portfolio and revenue considerations. CIFG also provides insurance with respect to swap
policies in support of transactions for which it provides a financial guaranty.
Please contact CIFG for your next transaction.
