What is infrastructure?

     •      Projects can be purely private (such as power stations, oil and gas
            development, pipelines or minerals), a partnership between the public
            and private sectors (PPPs), or may be built and operated completely
            in the public sector.
     •      Hard Infrastructure - highways, streets, roads, and bridges; mass
            transit; ports; canals; airports and airways; water supply and water
            resources; wastewater management; solid-waste treatment and
            disposal; electric power generation and transmission:
            telecommunications; and hazardous waste management
     •      Soft Infrastructure - cultural and sports infrastructure (stadiums,
            museums), public buildings (government buildings, schools,
            hospitals, police, fire, courts, libraries), public spaces (public squares,
            parks, beaches) and other, usually long-term, physical assets and
            facilities.

Government financed infrastructure

      •      Traditionally much of the infrastructure in the UK and elsewhere was
             financed and run by the private sector
      •      Only after World War 1 did infrastructure and public service provision
             become largely responsibility of government
      •      Governments could borrow at lower rates than the private sector
      •      Issues - how government could raise enough finance to fund large up
             front capital cost of new infrastructure and upgrading of existing
             infrastructure
      •      New infrastructure was not being built or maintained

Problems with traditional
  infrastructure procurement

      •Low quality build
            It’s built by the lowest bidder!
            No incentive to build to last
            No link between designers and operators
            Limited innovation
      •Adversarial approach to relationships
      •Difficulty in raising capital cost upfront
      •Hits today’s taxpayers benefits tomorrows
      •Cost and time overruns
            Change orders
      •Lack of strategic planning
      •Unnecessary retention of risk
      •Separate capital, operational and maintenance budgets mean that each
      is vulnerable to cuts

Problems with traditional
  infrastructure procurement

      §      Government needs to:
              § Upgrade old infrastructure
              § Build new infrastructure
              § Maintain new and existing infrastructure
              § Use this infrastructure to deliver top class services to the citizen,
                to a consistent standard and for the long term
              § Traditionally financed by tax revenue (local or central), with some
                user fees or tariffs
              § Since 1990s Increasing use of private finance to help meet
                worldwide infrastructure gap
              § Decided to use project finance to engage private sector
                investment

What are Public
        Private
        Partnerships?

What is PPP?

    • Contractual arrangement between the public & private sector -over a long
      term
    • To deliver a service -usually a new asset (or renovation)
    • Output not input specification
    • Integrate design, construction and maintenance
    • Contractor/operator finances investment up front
    • Contract can terminate for non-performance
    • Penalties for not meeting contract terms
    • Government retains reponsibility for ensuring service delivery to agreed
      standard
    • Assets revert to Public body at end of contract
          - For letting out on another PPP
          - Or operating by Public body

Why PPP?

           •   Spread of capital cost amortised over all taxpayers for life of contract
           •   Cost effective allocation of risks
           •   Combined services budget can’t be raided
           •   More efficient procurement
           •   Government budgets for operation and maintenance are protected
           •   Needs long term strategic and business planning
           •   Payment mechanism designed to ensure delivery and performance
           •   A strategic whole life approach to delivering services
           •   Services paid for as they are consumed
           •   Provision of assets otherwise unavailable

Types of PPP

 PPP can be grouped into two types:

 • demand based PPPs where the private firm takes revenue and/or demand
   risk
     • demand based PPP is often refereed to as a concession and relies on
       end-user customer payments

 • annuity based PPP where the government retains those risks
        • annuity based PPP is often referred to as a DBFO (PFI/PF2) and
          involves availability payments from the public sector

Funding and financing

    • do not muddle funding and financing

    • funding
              •      in general, funding applies when an organisation fills the need for cash from its own
                     internal reserves
              •      funding is the act of providing financial resources, usually in the form of money, or other
                     values such as effort or time, to finance a need, program, and project, usually by an
                     organisation or government
              •      government could allocate funds itself or through government agencies to projects that
                     benefit the public

    • financing
              •      the term 'financing' is used when the need is filled from external or borrowed money
              •      remember to meet the requirements of potential financiers
              •      you have to demonstrate that you are capable of managing the projects until they are
                     fully delivered

    • both are usually required in PPPs

History of Project Finance

•   limited recourse lending was used to finance maritime voyages in ancient
    Greece and Rome
•   its use in infrastructure projects dates to the development of the Panama
    Canal, and was widespread in the US oil and gas industry during the early
    20th century
•   however, project finance for high-risk infrastructure schemes originated with
    the development of the North Sea oil fields in the 1970s and 1980s
•   project finance is the principle system behind PPP

Definition of Project Finance

  •   project finance is the long-term financing of infrastructure and industrial
      projects based upon the projected cash flows of the project
  •   definitions focus on:
          •     the productive capabilities of an economic unit (i.e. the project)
          •     the needs and preferences of the debt participants in financing the
                development, construction and operation of such units, with the impact
                on the equity participants being implied by (and a direct consequence
                of) the debt
          •     principles and structures that evolved to address risk/reward
                allocations relating to the financing of the development, construction
                and operation of these projects

Where is the finance?

 • Today the problem is that of matching the supply of finance from the
   private sector with investable projects
 • The main forms of financing infrastructure remain:
    • government funding
       • traditional procurement
       • design-build-operate
    • corporate or on-balance sheet finance
       • corporate financing – which would involve
         getting finance for the project based on the
         balance sheet of the private operator
       • the mechanism used in lower value projects
    • project finance
       • “limited recourse” or “non-recourse” financing

Commercial viability

      • Will the project work and make money?
         • is there a sound market for the project or service?
             • how will current and future competition affect the viability of the
               project?
             • how are the running costs expected to escalate?
             • how reliable is the supporting infrastructure (e.g. the roads leading
               to the bridge which the project will construct)?
             • is a guarantee available from the public entity?
             • how reliable are the input supplies, and are alternatives available?
             • does the project company have the resources and skills to
               successfully implement and manage the project?

Bankability

   The degree to which a project is structured to represent an overall risk
   acceptable to the lenders

© copyright Altra Capital Limited 2018                              www.altracapital.com
Bankability

   Bankability focuses on

   •        the ability of the project company to repay the debt

   •        bankability is used to describe not only the contract between the lender and the
            project company but all of the contracts between the key project participants

   •        generally the lender will want to minimise the risk borne by the project
            company

   •        the sponsors forming the project company are equity investors and on
            successful projects equity investors will make approximately double the gains
            of the lender
   Put simply, a PPP project is considered bankable if lenders are willing to
   finance it

The business case 1 - general

   •       A technical study or feasibility study is not a business case
   •       It should never be the situation that PPP has already been decided upon
           by the procurer and that the business case is there to defend that
           decision. Improved procurement
   •       The project has to stack up in all aspects and be deliverable no matter
           the form of funding or financing.

    •      The procurer must
           •       establish what the problem is - why the project is needed
           •       set out the objectives
           •       set out all the relevant details, information and facts
           •       the technical solution
           •       analysis of the procurement / funding / financing options
           •       what the benefit of entering into a PPP might be
           •       develop a comprehensive basis to evaluate bids
           •       provide a way to measure the project’s success

    •      The sponsor (SPV) must develop
              •      a comprehensive risk-weighted business plan
              •      the financial justification for a project
              •      provide evidence that the project is a good investment

Costs and revenue

    • Are the technical cost estimates in line with the required output
      specifications and based on established national/international
      benchmarks?
    • Are all cost categories accounted for, including the costs of social and
      environmental impacts?
    • Is there an assessment of the ability and willingness to pay (especially if
      this is a new project with no previous experience of user charges)?
    • Are revenue estimates, whether based on user charges or government
      payments, backed by sound demand projections/ guaranteed demand?
    • Are the timing and level of expected revenues based on realistic
      assumptions?

        PPP for Sports facilities

         •      Most PPP’s fall into 2 groups
         •      Revenue generating hard infrastructure – roads, airports, power
         •      Non-revenue generating soft infrastructure – schools, hospitals,
                government buildings
         •      PPP sports facilities fall somewhere between the two – they are soft
                infrastructure but with significant, rather than ancillary, revenue
                generating opportunities
         •      Vary from municipal swimming pools and basketball courts to large
                stadia
         •      Key issues are: design, maximum event flexibility, predictable and
                large revenue streams
         •      Also – environmental impact, city footprint, transport access

PPP is no magic bullet

•      Without highly skilled individuals on both the public and private sector
       sides, PPP projects could still go badly wrong
•      Common problems included bureaucracy, inexperience, lack of technical
       skills, trying to change specifications midway through a project and
       political interference
•      Use recognised International procedures and contracts to attract
       international finance and essential highest quality management
•      Develop Private Sector capacity and expertise
•      Only with understanding will their be international interest
•      Sports projects carry higher than usual revenue risk for the private sector
