Breaking into project finance?
I've been on the idea of transitioning into project finance from public finance for some time now at the associate level. It seems like the project finance space isn't hiring a lot right now with COVID. Is this a realistic transition or would I need to consider getting my MBA? Do teams generally hire from summer analysts and not really at all from experienced candidates outside the field? Lastly, does anyone have any insight on Sol Systems and how they operate in the space? Thanks!
I'm in PF (BB). I haven't seen us hire anyone from public finance, but we definitely hire a lot of laterals from IB/CB, Big4, ratings agencies, etc. My team doesn't hire MBA associates, but we do have associates who broke into coverage as an MBA associate and then lateraled over. I imagine you'd be competitive coming from where you currently are.
Thanks man that's good to hear. Do you think people in project finance are generally familiar at all with public finance? Both super niche spaces, but both debt focused so I'm hoping people would view public finance as having some transferable skills?
I know some public finance bankers in my group work extensively with the project finance team at the firm, particularly on certain utilities deals
Hoping to learn more project finance. I work for a middle market renewable energy fund. Any suggestions on good training classes? Thanks in advance!
