4. Limitations on Hard Currency Lending Difficulties with traditional hard-currency financing: Natural mismatch for projects generating local currency revenues Dollar-indexed tariffs often commercially and politically unsustainable Hedging products often unavailable or prohibitively expensive Political risk insurance (C & T Risks) not designed to hedge devaluation Difficult experiences in Latin America during the past decade Less appetite among traditional project finance lenders for such risks
