¦ all U.S. debt (loans) denominated in dollars provided by U.S. banks,

¦ all debt (loans) denominated in euros provided by European banks, or

¦ half of funds obtained from loans denominated in euros and half obtained from loans denominated in dollars. Which form of financing will cause the project’s NPV to be the least sensitive to exchange rate risk?
