Norton Rose Fulbright and Mumbai firm JSA Law advised Citi on a financing supported by Export Finance Australia (EFA) to benefit India’s Power Finance Corporation (PFC). Under this inaugural arrangement, PFC partnered with EFA and Citi to secure a USD 180 million ECA‑backed financing facility from Citi.
