Description

Large infrastructure projects operate within highly regulated environments and frequently involve states or state-owned entities. Regulatory changes, tariff adjustments, sanctions regimes and shifting national priorities can fundamentally alter the economic balance of long-term projects.

This session examines how projects respond to State intervention while the contract is still alive.

The panel are expected to discuss:

  • Regulatory intervention affecting infrastructure concessions
  • Economic equilibrium and stabilisation clauses
  • Renegotiation versus arbitration in long-term projects
  • Keeping projects viable under political and regulatory pressure
