The Build America Transportation Investment Center (BATIC) in conjunction with the Transportation Investment Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Program, continue to provide policy guidance that explain changes made through the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. This webinar, “Federal Financing to Capitalize State Infrastructure Banks,” provides a detailed explanation of the FAST Act changes to the State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) program and explain how SIBs and eligible projects may benefit from using a rural projects fund. The webinar is intended for State and Federal employees involved in the operation of SIBs, project sponsors interested in obtaining SIB financing for eligible projects, and financial advisors that will be consulting with prospective borrowers.

Amit Srivastava, Financial Analyst and Jorianne Jernberg, Team Lead, Risk Management and Financial Operations Team in the TIFIA Joint Program Office provide comprehensive information about the TIFIA program, FAST Act changes to SIB eligibility requirements, and how TIFIA proposes to roll-out the SIB related FAST Act changes. Frederick Werner, Project Finance Manager, Office of Innovative Program Delivery discusses how SIBs work, how they have evolved over the years, and how the FAST Act has affected the program.
