In their 2013 Report Card, the American Society for Civil Engineers (ASCE) gave the United States a D+ for the poor overall condition of its infrastructure, including drinking and wastewater infrastructure, highways, bridges, ports, and more.
While communities around the country are attempting to improve the state of their infrastructure, budgetary restrictions and a cumbersome federal capital deployment process have created an ever widening gap between the amount of infrastructure improvements needed and the amount of projects actually receiving investment. To overcome this, communities are implementing new and innovative financing structures which often include a complex layering of development finance tools.
In an effort to address the financing challenges facing national and regional infrastructure projects, CDFA has partnered with Frost Brown Todd, LLC and FBT Project Finance Advisors to host a four-part webcast series on infrastructure finance in the United States. The CDFA – Frost Brown Todd Infrastructure Finance Webcast Series will address current trends in financing the nation’s most pressing infrastructure needs along with strategies for assembling capital, structuring the deal, and addressing critical financing gaps.
The Webcast Series will feature the industry’s top leaders discussing case studies, challenges, opportunities and critical issues in infrastructure. Topics discussed for this webcast include:
- September 26 – The State of Infrastructure Financing in the U.S.
- September 27 – Financing Solutions for Today’s Transportation Infrastructure Crisis
- September 28 – Latest Trends in Energy & Water Infrastructure Finance
- September 29 – The Next Wave: Assembling Capital for Communications & Social Infrastructure
The CDFA – Frost Brown Todd Infrastructure Finance Webcast Series will be held on September 26-29 with sessions daily from 2:00 – 3:30pm. Register today and attend the full week of the series.
