Document background
The Project Finance Contract is a fundamental document used in Qatar for structuring complex financing arrangements for large-scale projects. It serves as the primary agreement between the project company (borrower) and various financing parties, establishing the terms and conditions for the provision of project financing. This document is particularly relevant in Qatar's rapidly developing economy, where major infrastructure, energy, and development projects frequently require structured finance solutions. The agreement must comply with Qatar's legal framework, including civil law principles and Sharia requirements where applicable. It typically includes detailed provisions covering facility terms, security arrangements, conditions precedent, representations and warranties, covenants, and events of default. The document is designed to accommodate multiple financing sources, including conventional banks, Islamic finance institutions, and development finance institutions, while addressing Qatar-specific regulatory requirements and market practices.
