It is rare that a project lender, property development financier, PFI banker, MBO debt provider or securitization investor does not insist on its borrower taking out some form of interest rate and/or cross-currency hedging. By and large, however, the implications of integrating a swap into a structured financing are little understood and often ignored. At best, current practice is often misrepresentative and lax.

He was known throughout the Confederacy as "the Northern general all Southerners love to hate," and this was a title he earned to the fullest. Befor
