Join the Exile team for a review of the data behind the deals in the Americas, including a view into:

  • How tickets have gotten fatter, with a comparable number of deals year-to-date
  • How cruise paper is doing the heavy lifting for export finance work in 2026, with European ECAs writing enormous US tickets
  • How the big tickets in Latin America project finance have come via roads, water, and power

Core infrastructure is back in fashion across Latin America — helped along by post-pandemic traffic recovery, auctions, and a decarbonization agenda that is slowly reshaping “plain vanilla” assets. This panel unpacks what is driving deal flow today, which structures are actually reaching close, and where lenders still see unpriced risk by asking:

  • Where is the near-term, financeable pipeline across highways, airports and urban mobility — and what’s actually coming to market in the next 12–24 months? 
  • How are financial mechanisms evolving to overcome challenges like currency and political risk?
  • What’s blocking otherwise viable projects — permitting/land, credit quality of offtakers, sponsor appetite, political will?

A practical session on how energy projects get financed when they sit next to industrial demand, nearshoring and large infrastructure corridors across the Americas. Participants will:

  • Map capital stacks that actually close 
  • Discuss stress-test off-take models tied to industrial load, not just merchant power
  • Pinpoint the collaboration (and bottlenecks) that move deals from term sheet to financial close
