How a partnership is put together
Who signs what, and what flows between them.
The public authority, the special purpose vehicle it contracts with, and the parties standing behind that vehicle. Health Solutions advises on every line in this diagram, from the agreement at the top to the operating and insurance arrangements at the foot.
The terms on which debt is raised set the coverage ratios the project must meet for the life of the concession. Payment mechanisms and availability regimes are drafted against the implementation and service arrangements.
