<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Structured Finance is a textbook focusing on non-recourse financial techniques and asset-based lending. It explains the main structured finance techniques used today (LBO, project finance, asset finance and securitization) and how they compare. The book also outlines the reasons why these structures have been so successful in the last 30 to 40 years and why bankers came up with them in the first place. The book is a good introduction on these main financing techniques. It also allows the readers to take a step back by showing the similarities and the differences that exist between these four types of structured transactions. The appendices expose, in detail, the characteristics of financial instruments that can be found in all these transactions (such as Credit Default Swaps and Credit Linked Notes). The book will also include a presentation of the regulatory framework (Basel Accords) under which these transactions are now implemented"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Comprehensive coverage of all major structured finance transactions</b></p> <p><i>Structured Finance</i> is a comprehensive introduction to non-recourse financing techniques and asset-based lending.

What is structured finance? Broadly defined, it is a combination of financial tools that are not off-the-shelf. It is an exciting mix of financial expertise, the occasional use of exotic financial instruments, and the unlimited use of one's imagination. It is a collection of tools creatively put together to make large, complex projects possible. Projects that otherwise would never have been financed. Without it, Gustave Eiffel would never have found the funds to build the Eiffel Tower, Richard Branson would never have started Virgin Atlantic, and Malcolm Glazer would never have bought Manchester United.<br /><br />Structured finance is a powerful engine for global growth. Readers will find in this book real-life examples showing the impact of structured finance all over the world, on all kinds of businesses. Bike lovers can see how structured finance gave Harley Davidson a second life. Those of you longing for a greener world can see how it helps the energy transition. And if you have a passion for donuts, you can see how it allowed for a restructuring of Dunkin Donuts. From leveraged buyouts to project finance, from securitization to asset finance, structured finance is the unseen beating heart of the global economy.<br /><br />Structured finance is also a set of complex debt products. The author analyzes in this book each of the main structured finance techniques and the rationale behind them. He covers the reasons why bankers came up with these financing tools and how the tools differ from each other. He also details the opportunities that structured finance offers companies and banks within the context of regulatory constraints like the Basel Accords. Finally, he shares an analysis of the most recent market trends, highlighting the growing importance of Credit Default Swaps and Credit Linked Notes and explaining how equity and debt funds are reshaping the global financial system.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Charles-Henri Larreur</b> is an investment banker specialized in structured finance and debt advisory. He is currently a professor at HEC Paris. He holds a Msc in Management from HEC Paris, a Msc in Public Affairs from Sciences Po and a BA in History from Sorbonne University.</p>
