Although it may have been overlooked for project financings in the past, Iraq presents a wealth of investment opportunities and is open to business. This session focuses on opportunities available in Iraq, asking:

  • What does the new Sovereign Guarantee Initiative mean for international lenders looking to Iraq? 
  • Which ECAs and banks are already leading the way when it comes to Iraq based investments? 
  • Which infrastructure assets are most in need of financing, and what does the project pipeline look like?
