State P3 statutes that differ materially in what they permit
Combining municipal, federal program, and private capital in one financing
We advise public authorities, agencies, and their delivery partners on the financing and governance of infrastructure — from P3 frameworks to individual projects and the public programs that support them.
US infrastructure is financed through a mix found nowhere else: municipal debt, federal credit programs, tax-advantaged structures, and private capital under state P3 statutes that differ from one state to the next. The financing question is usually which combination a particular project and jurisdiction actually allow.
Public sector advisory, P3 frameworks, and infrastructure structuring for US authorities and their delivery partners.

Advisory for public programs and the infrastructure that carries them
Capital architecture
Blended finance layer stack
How concessional, guarantee-backed, and commercial capital combine in bankable project and fund structures.
Guarantee layer
Partial credit · political risk · first-loss
Concessional finance
DFI · ECA cover · blended tranches
Sponsor equity
Government · corporate · project equity
Layered by payment seniority — commercial capital sits senior, concessional and guarantee layers absorb structured risk, and sponsor equity takes first loss.

A disciplined approach to capital advisory
We work between the public program and the market — translating public objectives into structures lenders and investors can underwrite within the statutory framework available, and documenting them to institutional standards.
Assess
Evaluate policy objectives, delivery options, fiscal impact, and market appetite for public or PPP structures.
Structure
Design risk allocation, payment mechanisms, guarantee layers, and governance for bankable project or program delivery.
Mobilize
Run lender, DFI, and investor processes — term sheets, due diligence, and financial close coordination.
Transition
Support operations handover, covenant monitoring, and refinancing planning through the asset lifecycle.
Client outcomes
- Programs translated into projects lenders and investors can underwrite
- P3 frameworks with risk allocation the private sector will accept
- Structures that fit the statutory and program requirements that apply
