During her time at Asian Development Bank, Marika was in my project team which was implementing a Multi Tranche Financing Facility. The product aimed at facilitating efficiency and speed in public infrastructure finance specifically in transmission and distribution assets. She supported me in a number of aspects of the project processing, planning and discussions with all stakeholders. She quickly learned the big picture of the project and could gain knowledge on the financial and technical side of program loans in energy transmission and distribution. Marika is a quick learner, reliable and works efficiently towards the final objective.
