Sports / Recreation

Sports venues. Convention centers. Buildings for public assembly. They’re the high-profile projects that can unite a community. But projects of this magnitude also carry serious risks: poorly structured financings can undermine any budget, and success typically depends on the coordinated support of public and private entities.

PFM has become the nation's pre-eminent financial advisor for public assembly facilities because we create innovative financing that meets the needs of each specific public-private partnership. Our experience includes:

• Arena, stadium and convention center financings
  
  
• Financing of urban redevelopment projects and mixed-use developments
  
  
• Project revenue-secured debt financings for sports facilities
  
  
• Sports facility and convention center credit structuring
  
  
• Hotel financing facilities

We bring to every project a working knowledge of local markets, local regulations and local political networks. Why? Because creating the maximum amount of economic leverage for a high-profile project is not only about financing; it’s about the skillful coordination of relationships among numerous public and private interests.
