Based on competition and globalization, privatization prepares a more suitable context towards this aim which leads to more efficient use of taxpayers’ money on public infrastructure capital investment projects. The aim of this work is to introduce project finance technique and underline its importance and application in financing large capital invtensive projects. In order to achieve this purpose, a brief history of project finance and some distributive statistical findings in different industrial sectors is presented.

Ultimately, risk mitigation is considered by studying and recommending suitable types of contracts as far as possible.
