OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has published an interactive summary of its recent series of Infrastructure Credit Events that took place in Europe in May and June 2015. The summary brings together 5 presentations, links to related research reports and a recent teleconference, providing a comprehensive perspective on infrastructure markets for 2015 and beyond.

Topics covered were:
- Key Drivers for Infrastructure Ratings
- Public-Private Partnership Risk Drivers
- Forecasting Supply & Demand: Art or Science
- Political & Regulatory Risk in Western Europe

Interactive discussion brought up the following questions at the events:
- How does Fitch assess long term O&M and lifecycle cost risk?
- How much is a PPP obligation "as good as" the grantor's debt?
- Are grantors' PPP rating a potential constraint?
- Do you consider regulatory and/or political risks are key risks in European infrastructure?

The 2015 Infrastructure Credit events were held in London (Seminar) and Paris (Roundtable). They attracted 37 senior delegates including investors, bankers and advisory services.
