  1. MozambiqueFACILITATING PRIVATE SECTOR FINANCING FOR INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS Future Economic Policies and Non-Traditional Sources of Finance Maputo, March 22-25, 2010 THE WORLD BANK

  2. Regional and Sectoral Concentration of Private Flows in Infrastructure (1990-2008) By sector By region Total: $1,640 bn (4,251 projects) Source: World Bank

  3. Factors that could affect Borrowings of Public Sector Entities • State of Finance of the SOE • Stage of development of the relevant sector and the Regulatory environment • Credit History • Credit Rating • Source of revenues (generally local currency) • Limited to access to local markets

  4. Factors that could affect State Entities Access to International Financing • Limited financing capacity of local markets • Recourse to international markets to fund infrastructure investments in foreign currency • Repayment obligations in foreign currency require access to foreign exchange which often necessitates Sovereign Guarantees

  5. Sovereign Guarantees • Guarantee provided by the Government to backstop a public entity’s payment or performance obligations in the context of public sector borrowings or PPPs Pros: • Facilitates access to international debt and capital markets • Enables better terms of financing from commercial markets • Endorsement of Government of the Financing/Project

  6. Contd. Sovereign Guarantees Cons: • Creates contingent liability for the Government which may require budgetary allocation • Impacts on borrowing capacity of Government and its debt profile • Involves assumption of the underlying risk by the Government

  7. Third Party Guarantees • In addition to Sovereign Guarantees third party Guarantees may be required in support of financings because of: • Perception of political risk resulting from • Possibility of Reversal in Government Policy • Changes in Government that could lead to a reneging of previous Government’s contractual undertakings

  8. Third Party Guarantees • Private Insurance Market • Export Credit Agencies • Bilateral Institutions • Multilateral Institutions

  9. The World Bank Guarantee Program • Leveraging Bank resources • Catalyzing private sector finance in support of developmental objectives • Facilitating member countries access to the international debt and capital markets

  10. Partial Risk Guarantees • Rationale: Promotes privatization by catalyzing private sector interest through political risk mitigation • Purpose: Supports debt financing in the form of commercial debt or shareholder loans or provides cash flow support • Guarantee coverage: Critical sovereign risks related to Government commitments under the relevant Contractual Agreements • Modality: For Privatization, Concessions, or other PPP structures, or for Greenfield Projects

  11. Partial Credit Guarantees * • Partial Credit (PCG) • Generally for public sector projects/entities • Covers debt service default for specified payments • Alternative structures developed for different credits and market conditions • Policy Based Guarantees (PBG) • For Sovereign or Sub Sovereign entities • With DPO IDA Credits or on a ‘stand alone’ basis under the DPO framework • For fiscal support • To improve debt terms for government borrowings * Expected to be made available to IDA countries this year. *

  12. IBRD Enclave Guarantees for IDA-only Countries • IBRD Enclave Loans can support public and private projects • IBRD Enclave Partial Risk Guarantees (PRG) support private projects • ‘Enclave Structure’ in support of foreign exchange generating projects that rely primarily on acceptable credit enhancements to IBRD (e.g. through offshore escrow accounts funded by foreign exchange (FX) revenues, strong third party guarantee) in addition to host country government counter-guarantee

  13. Contd. IBRD Enclave Guarantees for IDA-only Countries • Alternative ‘Enclave Structure’ in support of projects in relatively high-rated IDA countries (i) that have clear economic benefits (e.g. import substitution) but do not themselves generate foreign exchange; and (ii) projects that have clear economic benefits with strong financial flows in local currency through an offtake to a stronger creditworthy party • IBRD Enclave support would be additional to IDA’s Country Envelope

  27. Preferred Guarantee Modality • Early involvement of the Bank may help to enhance investor interest • Guarantee structure to be incorporated in the Bid Documents as an option • Bids should demonstrate value added of the Guarantee • Value added of the Guarantee to be a part of the Bid Evaluation

  28. Benefits of the Guarantee to the Government • Catalyzes financing through market access, longer tenors and lower financings costs • Facilitates privatization & PPPs by enhancing investor interest • Accelerates the pace of new investment for expansion of relevant services • Sustains relatively more attractive retail tariff regimes by significantly improving the debt profile of financings • Enhances the potential “sale” value of existing assets or of the franchise for the Government

  29. contd. Benefits of the Guarantee to the Government • No additional contingent liability • Is additional to the country lending program • Creates market confidence through Bank leverage and track record • Provides for risk sharing with the private sector • No associated costs (guarantee fee would be payable by the investor as part of project costs) • Transitional - can be structured to fall away

  30. Benefits of the Guarantee to the Private Sector • Would help to mitigate critical perceived political risks • Would help to make privatizations financeable through facilitating direct access to financial markets • Would help to catalyze long term “non recourse” debt financing thereby reducing the risk profile of the investment and overall capital costs • Associates the Bank with the project providing comfort on Government governance issues

  31. Completed PRG Operations in Africa

  32. Case Study Nigeria Energy and Gas Improvement Project (NEGIP) - 2009

  33. Nigeria Energy and Gas Improvement Project • Sector Issues: • Abundant gas resources yet shortage of gas for power • Pricing structure for gas • Contractual arrangements • Creditworthiness of the Power Utility

  34. Nigeria Energy and Gas Improvement Project Solutions: • Sector Reform • Pricing restructuring • Imposition of domestic gas obligations on International Oil Companies (IOC) • Change in existing contractual arrangements • Appointment of a Gas Regulator • Risk Mitigation • PRG to backstop the Power Utility‘s payment obligations under the Gas Supply and Aggregator Agreements with IOCs

  36. Benefits of the PRG • Underpinned market development for domestic gas • Helped to create an enabling environment for sector reform • Minimal risk mitigation of US$400m will help to catalyze around US$4 bn of gas flows for the priority power sector • Will help to mobilize substantial investments in the sector from the private sector

  37. Case Study Southern African Regional Gas Project Mozambique – South Africa
