His extensive experience, both in terms of his broad project finance practice and especially in the financing of renewables and social infrastructure projects across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, will be a great fit for Trowers and I very much look forward to working with him and further building out our significant PE&I offering across the Middle East and beyond."
