CONTENTS
• ROLE OF INFRASTRUCTURE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT • INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCING – THE GAP • FINANCING OPTIONS • FUNDING REQUIREMENTS AND OPTIONS • CONCLUSION
ROLE OF INFRASTRUCTURE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
• Established positive correlation between GDP growth and the stock of infrastructure assets (
Calderon & Serven, 2005
) • Income and inequality declines with higher infrastructure quantity and quality.
• Infrastructure development - highly effective to combat poverty.
• Infrastructure - a key enabler for efficient resource allocation and export growth.
• Studies established that improved access to safe water for instance has an additional positive impact on income equality.
ROLE OF INFRASTRUCTURE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
• Infrastructure development connects domestic market of commodities and credit to international markets (including financial markets); • Infrastructure development improves the country’s competitiveness aiding local industry and attracting foreign direct investment; • Infrastructure investments lead to mobilization of latent resources and promotion of general economic development and growth; • Recent emergence of China as the world factory would not be possible without a range of new economic infrastructure services in place.
Infrastructure Financing – The Gap
• In 2008 Africa’s total infrastructure needs amounted to US$93bn with only US$45bn financed (
Africa Infrastructure Country Diagnostic, 2008
development.
).
• Zimbabwe requires approx.US$33bn in the next two decades (WB, 2012). At least US$1.65bn required each year for infrastructure • If Zimbabwe were to follow a growth path more akin to that of a middle country, estimates of the needs could be 20% higher than the baseline scenario i.e US$40bn in total over the next 2 decades (
Lim & Pommerenke, 2012
).
• •
Infrastructure Financing – The Gap
• • AfDB estimated that the country requires about US$14.2bn at 2009 existing infrastructure and new capacity from 2011-2020 .

FINANCING OPTIONS
Global trends - increased involvement of private sector in infrastructure provision.
Most private sector investment channelled to ICT sector, which received 87% of investment commitments in 2008 (
OECD, 2010
).
Innovative financing sources – local & foreign currency bonds, private equity, Sovereign wealth funds, PPPs, and emerging South partners.
Good examples abound - Nelspruit Water and Sanitation Concession in South Africa helped raise access to water for houses in Mbombela Municipality from 55% in 1999 to 94% in 2010, (
Brenden & Gibson, 2010
).
FINANCING OPTIONS (cont)
Private sector participation in the infrastructure is enabled by collaborative effort between Private and Public sector through PPPs.
Collaborative ventures in PPPs - built around expertise and capacity of the project partners.
Founded on Contractual Agreement, which ensures appropriate and mutually agreed allocation of resources, risks, responsibilities and returns.
PPPs - long-term, contractual partnerships between the public & private sector agencies, specifically targeted towards financing, designing, implementing and operating infrastructure facilities and services traditionally provided by the public sector. Some of the essentials of a PPP are: High priority, government planned project. The project must have emerged from a government-led planning and prioritization process Genuine risk allocation. Shared risk allocation is a principal feature of a PPP project Mutually valuable. Value should be for both sides, which means Govt. should also genuinely accept some risks and not transfer the entire risk to private sector, and vice
versa
FINANCING OPTIONS (cont)
Forms and Formats of PPPs:
The most common options are • Service Contract • Management Contract/Lease • Built Operate Transfer (BOT) • Build Own Operate Transfer (BOOT) • Concession • Joint Venture Most contracts take the form of Concession and Design, Build, Finance and Operate contracts to cover the finance, design, management and maintenance obligations.
FINANCING OPTIONS (cont)
Key Success Factors for PPPs
• Enabler and Facilitative role for Government; • Governance structure ensures consumer + public interests are safeguarded; • Commercial interests protected for private sector party (tariff/return); • Domicile/Place risks to parties that are well equipped to deal with them; • Transparent + well conceived contracts (negotiate terms to best advantage); • Documentation recognizes rights and responsibilities of all parties • Concerns of all stakeholders addressed; • Technology + Knowledge Transfer (Capacity building for public sector operator)
Case Studies- Africa

Case Studies
The Nelspruit Water and Sanitation Concession in South Africa helped raise access to water for houses in Mbombela Municipality from 55% in 1999 to 94% in 2010, (
Brenden & Gibson, 2010
).
Infrastructure bonds - very successful in other African economies like Kenya. Since February 2009 bonds worth US$1bn issued, (
AfDB, 2009
).
Ghana issued a sovereign bond in 2007 worth US$750mil.
Zambia in 2012 issued its inaugural sovereign bond raising US$750mil from international investors (oversubscribed).
Case Studies - Africa
• • • Zambia’s inaugural sovereign bond sale follows in the footsteps of Nigeria, Namibia and Angola. Ghana, Gabon, Senegal and Republic of Congo have also issued Eurobonds in recent years.
Diaspora bonds - pioneered in Ethiopia as Millennium Corporate bonds. These targeted Ethiopians (abroad & at home) to raise funding for the state owned Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation.
WB estimates that SSA countries could rise up to US$5-10bn per year through such bonds. Diaspora bonds are a potential source for future long term funding for infrastructure especially in Zimbabwe given Diaspora population estimated at above 2million.
Case Studies – IDBZ Projects
• Raised a US$30mil bond for Energy – ZETDC prepaid metering project through our instrument, the Infrastructure Development Bond (IDB
Bonds)
• Housing projects; Waneka – Phase I- 72 units; Phase II- 216 Units (Jv with CoH); Willovale Flats; Mbizo 22 in Kwekwe; •
Government projects under IDBZ management:
Tokwe Murkosi; Mtshabezi Pipeline; Gwai Shangani; Wenimbi & Bubi Lupane.
Harare International Airport + J.M Nkomo Airport State Universities Housing/Accommodation projects
Project Development Process
For successful infrastructure funding projects need to be developed to bankability: Necessary steps to develop projects to bankability: Project Identification Prefeasibility Study Feasibility Study Project Appraisal Project Preparation and Packaging Project Fundraising Financial Closure

Lack of funding for project development; Skills gap for project preparation and packaging; Lack of supportive specialised institutions that support Private Sector Participation in infrastructure development;

CONCLUSION
• Improvement in operating environment; • Review regulatory framework governing various infrastructure sectors; • Viable tariff setting for sustainability of infrastructure ventures; • Strengthening of PPP Framework through an enactment of legislation • Setting up grant funding for project preparation and packaging; • Promote syndication arrangements among financial institutions both domestic and international for infrastructure development (capacity). • Adequately capitalised DFIs that focus on infrastructure so they play a pivotal and direct lending role to infrastructure development.
