Risk Allocation Scenario
E.g., 'Review this draft Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for a solar project. Identify the top three unacceptably high risks allocated to our client (the Project Company/Sponsor).'
Partner Panel
Assessing your project management skills and ability to run 50-party financing calls effectively.
Real White & Case Interview Questions
Practice these exact questions faced by previous Associate (Energy, Infrastructure, Project and Asset Finance - EIPAF) candidates.
1(Bankability & Risk Allocation) You are representing a syndicate of international commercial banks financing a massive offshore wind farm in an emerging market. Walk me through exactly how you legally structure the 'Security Package' to mitigate 'Offtaker Risk' (the risk that the state-owned utility buys the power but cannot pay for it). Include the use of Sovereign Guarantees and Political Risk Insurance (PRI). (Project Finance / Risk Structuring)
2Explain the strategic tension between the 'Lenders' and the 'EPC Contractor' in a non-recourse project finance deal. Walk me through the legal mechanics of how you draft the 'Direct Agreement' to ensure the Lenders have absolute 'Step-In Rights' to cure defaults before the EPC Contractor can terminate the construction contract. (Drafting / Stakeholder Management)
3(Technical Mastery) A massive infrastructure project is suffering severe construction delays due to an unforeseen geological issue. The EPC Contractor attempts to claim 'Force Majeure'. Walk me through the brutal legal analysis and the exact contractual thresholds you apply to determine if this genuinely constitutes a Force Majeure event versus a standard construction risk they must bear. (Contract Law / Dispute Avoidance)
4Our client, a massive Sovereign Wealth Fund, wants to invest equity into a portfolio of operational toll roads across Latin America. Walk me through the specific due diligence focus areas regarding 'Concession Agreements' and the risk of unilateral tariff changes by the host governments. (Infrastructure M&A / Regulatory Risk)
5Project finance transactions are famously grueling, often taking years to close and involving thousands of pages of deeply interconnected documents. Tell me about your exact system for maintaining flawless version control and ensuring that a change in the financial model at 2 AM on a Sunday is perfectly mirrored across 15 different finance documents. (Execution / Attention to Detail)
