Nigeria’s infrastructure deficit presents both a significant development challenge and an important opportunity for private investment. The financing, development and operation of infrastructure projects require legal structures capable of balancing public objectives, private investment, regulatory requirements and long-term commercial sustainability.
At Summit Legal, our Infrastructure practice advises governments, project sponsors, developers, investors, financial institutions, contractors, operators and other stakeholders involved in infrastructure projects.
We provide support throughout the project life-cycle, from concept development and feasibility through structuring, land acquisition, procurement, financing, construction, operation, commercialisation and eventual restructuring or exit.
Our lawyers advise on project structures, PPPs, concessions, project finance, construction arrangements, development agreements, government contracts, regulatory approvals, land and title matters and risk allocation.
