With the reflection to the facts above I would start my advice to the bank by emphasizing that syndicated loans are very common in projects that require a high capital, as to the project of constructing a large dam.
When investors or borrowers approach banks to lend them for a huge amount of money for such projects as the construction of the dam, banks are unwilling or incapable of supplying the borrowers demand through a bi-lateral loan agreement ; Banks are restricted to take funded exposure on a single borrower to up to 15% of their capital, and non-funded exposure up to 20% of their capita .
Sometime banks can’t fund an entire project because they do not wish to in-crease assets to their balance sheets by adding large loans when

In Addition, syndicated loan are international in their nature, the borrower could according to fluctuating interest rate change the currency of the loan.
Syndicated loans also permits banks to have more diversity and also expand their lending to broader geographical areas and industries. Syndicated loans are also very beneficial to small banks who aren’t usually able of funding a high capital projects, but through syndicated loans small banks can lend to borrowers in regions and industries which they might not be able to fund in other cases, it also allows them the exposure to large borrowers which they couldn’t lend in bilateral lending.
Participating in a syndicated loan gives banks the opportunity to achieve diversification in their own loan portfolios and liquidity. One of the main advantages of syndicated loans is the fact that participating banks share the risks of the lending, therefore they can participate in a big project which would enhance their name and yet the losses would be shared with other banks and the losses would be less than if they funded the loan alone, that is of course in case of default. In addition, participating banks play an important role by providing informative opinions and expertise and financing options to the
In AFC’s business plan, it stated the company is building production facilities in five major cities in U.S. and also the patent of unique ethanol production process can be collateral too. In AFC’s condition they need to get the operation started so a bridging loan (short-term) is most suitable for them until they find a permanent investor to provide the additional funds needed and it carries relatively lower risk for our bank as well.
It is accepted as a popular alternative and the lenders are finding new ways to customise the loan deals.
The question that transcends the project is whether equity investors be sufficiently rewarded to justify there financing interests. The answer to this question is dependent
We should concern about the inherent risk for completeness and accuracy of interest expense related to the loan borrowed to finance the new project as the project is now facing with a crisis to be worthless due to its major investor----Tiger Moods’s scandal.
Might not raise enough money for the project since the majority of the debt would probably require
A 726 foot monolith, straddling the Arizona/Nevada border, works day and night to transform an uninhabitable desert into a glistening metropolis. The Hoover Dam, previously known as Boulder Dam until 1947, was and is still one of the largest hydroelectric dams in the world. Initiated by the United States Government in 1930, the construction of the dam took a little less than 5 years. From 1932-1936, more than 5,000,000 barrels of concrete were used during the construction of the dam and diversion tunnels, building the structure from the bottom up, block by block. Over 21,000 workers migrated from cities and states across the nation to help accomplish this marvel of engineering. Today, the dam stands as a symbol of American determination and
Most clients will obtain funds for new projects from financiers such as banks or finance companies no matter how large or small of the projects. Financier provides financial instruments for financing the construction project such as term loan, syndicated loan, bridging finance, end-finance or banker’s guarantee.
The Glen Canyon dam has improved the Glen canyon area by making it safer. The dam helps with flood control so it will protect the canyon from water damage. The dam also helps create or enlarge a riparian zone ( area is the interface between land and a river or stream). Another reason that the dam is good for the canyon is the change of the ecosystem can help support a variety of introduced species.
-Lack of a commitment for permanent financing--takeout or permanent loan was how most construction loans are repaid
The Glen Canyon Dam has been used to generate controlled floods based on geologists’ understanding of the natural cycle on the pre-dam Colorado River. Scientists hoped that a moderate, dam-generated flood would scoop sediment, which had accumulated for years on the riverbed, out of the channel and redeposit it on the shoreline of the river. This action could lead to restoring beaches and backwater nursery habitats, irrigating native vegetation and flushing out non-native
The threats from the financial aspect of the biggest dangers facing the project, so to find a solution to this problem we must find a funder source for projects such as a bank.

The Chad-Cameroon Petroleum Development and Pipeline Project was one that helped finance the pipeline with World Bank funds as well as funds from some other sources and lenders in the world. Chad had a lot of oil but being landlocked had no way to bring the oil to market. And as one of the poorest nations on earth, it didn't have the funds to build a pipeline. The IMF and World Bank got involved to help coalesce efforts towards success. There were $600 million in investments. $100 million from the IFC (private arm of World Bank), $200 million from France's COFACE. The US Import-Export Bank invested $200 million and private lenders coordinated by the IFC invested an additional $100 million. 1
We calculated that Mr. Wilson would need an estimate of 982000 not 750000 to finance the expected expansion. As well after viewing the liquidity ratios who tend to decrease in last years, it would be risky to take such a loan.
Financial intermediaries provide a number of functions. The first of which is known as size transformation. A financial intermediary is able to borrow to an economic agent with a deficit of funds the amount they require without the need to find a lender that is willing to invest the exact amount required by the borrower. Without financial intermediaries, it would be extremely difficult for a borrower to raise capital as lenders would have to pool their funds together in order to lend the borrower the amount they require. Another function of financial intermediaries is maturity transformation. Economic agents with surplus funds usually prefer investing their money in short-term projects, whereas borrowers require more long-term financing. Financial intermediaries offer an optimal solution, without which borrowers and lenders would be in disagreement over the terms of the transfer of funds. Financial intermediaries also provide risk transformation. Economic agents with surplus funds are usually very risk conscious when it comes to investment, but borrowers however may require the finance for a more risky project, that may be more profitable. Financial intermediaries are willing to take risks that borrowers usually would not. However, there is usually a compensation agreement so as to avoid
