The session will discuss key considerations for capital project financing (bonds, private placements, financing leases, and government loans - USDA, SRF, WIFIA, etc.) and how market conditions impact
your district's ability to obtain financing. The session focuses on practical aspects of capital project funding:
- How municipal financing process is organized
- What team members you need to have on board
- How to select appropriate financing tools in different market environments
- Why interest rate is not the only criteria you should consider
- What on-going responsibilities you have once debt is issued
A market update will also be provided, because even though we may not always know what the future holds, we should always know where we stand right now.
