Key Terms

loan facility, public–private partnership

2 terms

loan facility financial

"The transaction was financed through a loan facility arranged when ASUR submitted its offer"

A loan facility is a formal agreement with a bank or lender that lets a company borrow money up to a set limit under agreed terms — like a large credit card or mortgage tailored for a business. It matters to investors because it determines how easily a company can get cash for operations, growth or debt repayment, and influences interest costs, leverage and any lender-imposed rules that can affect future strategy and risk.

public–private partnership regulatory

"successfully completed a public–private partnership under the FAA Pilot Program"

A public–private partnership is a formal agreement where a government agency and a private company share responsibility for delivering, funding, operating, or maintaining a public project or service—such as roads, hospitals, or utilities—with risks, payments and duties split between them. It matters to investors because these deals create long-term contracts and revenue streams tied to government objectives and performance, while also exposing returns to political, regulatory and operational risks—like a private firm jointly running a public asset under a multi-year lease.
