Daniele Pompei

I am an associate in our Banking & Finance department, based in Rome. I specialise in project finance work with a specific focus on the infrastructure and renewable energy sectors.

I focus on project finance matters, mainly in the infrastructure and renewable energy sectors (photovoltaic, biomasses, hydroelectric, and wind farm projects). I have particular experience and expertise in the drafting and negotiation of financial and project documentation (EPC, O&M).

I have also gained significant experience providing assistance to banks and sponsors on public tenders and the public procedure for the construction of infrastructure. Moreover, I assist banks and sponsors on the analysis of concessions for public works or public services such as the integrated water service.

I work with clients on the realisation of project financing based transactions from the due diligence phase to the financial close.

Before joining Bird & Bird, I worked at SACE S.p.A, an Italian financial and insurance products and services company, and subsequently at leading national and international law firms.
