Ecology and social development: Rules and Approaches Environmental and social requirements, procedures and approaches imposed by IFC are being used within the whole lifecycle: –Safety requirements: establish environmental and social requirements and information disclosure procedures –Rules for sectors of economy: quantitative environmental requirements, including Pollution prevention and reduction manual –Environmental and social audit procedures: include public hearings, information disclosure and IFC supervision requirements

SME involvement in large-scale projects – key strategy of IFC Dairy-farm development (Campina – Stupino) Automotive parts sector (Ford - Vsevolozhsk) SME development in mining region (Juliet - Magadan) Logging companies of the North-West of Russia Examples of Projects in Russia

The Komi Republic: Negotiating project with SUAL Group Development, construction and operating integrated bauxite- aluminous-aluminum complex Total project cost is being evaluated at US$2 billion European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is also financing the project Activities: –Preliminary environmental impact assessment at early stages of the project –Organizing public hearings for expansion of Middle-Timan bauxite mine –Development of Program for local SME involvement in the operation of aluminous-aluminum complex, utilizing world experience

Presentation format Overview of International Finance Corporation (IFC) IFC experience in promotion of SME involvement in large- scale projects Preliminary plans of supporting SUAL aluminum project in the Komi Republic

Example: MOZAL Aluminum plant in Mozambique Second stage construction “Management of the Plant expansion project is aiming to maximise benefits for local population, utilizing Strategy of involvement of local staff, services and contractors, without detriment to the Project goals and time constraints”

Some issues of SME involvement in the first stage of the Project SME do not always meet requirements of complex and large contracts Even after successful bid, SME do not always comply with contract terms SME do not fully understand requirements of quality and standards (safety, quality et c) of international enterprises SME have lack access to financial resources

Solutions: construction stage Step 1. Development of “bid packages” for SME  Special packages for SME  Realistic approach to contract price, time, and complexity Step 2. Evaluation of local SME potential  Development and support of SME database with support of local state investment promotion agency  Evaluation of technical and financial of local SME Step 3. Training  Before bidding: how to bid  After bidding: contractor requirements  If necessary: quality, management et c Step 4. Support (mentorship)  Individual SME support plan  Business support: finances, logistics et c  Technical support: safety, quality, Техническая поддержка: безопасность, качество, labor and health protection, ecology

Program outputs  28 “bid packages” were designed specially for local SME  28 contracts were signed by 14 SME  All 28 contracts were successfully finished  Majority of these 14 SME continue to work at operational stage of the Mozal project  Positive experience at construction stage led to the same approach at operational stage of the Mozal project  Mozal investor - BHP Billiton – is implementing similar Program with IFC to expand production at aluminum plant in SAR

Example 2: Far East of Russia Canadian / IFC investments in gold mining in Magadan oblast (district) Companies are interested to increase share of local sub-contracting Remote location of the region Local SME at an early stage of development Complex business climate IFC goal: to increase influence of foreign investments on local economy

Complex approach IFC solutions Detailed demand analysis Individual support for selected suppliers Provides consulting for all SME, outside of gold-mining sector Innovative approach: factoring, credit unions, “business angels” Removing administrative barriers and cooperation with local government Key issues Weak local supply for mining industry SME do not pursue existing opportunities Lack of SME support infrastructure Banks are not ready to finance SME Complex business environment

Example: easier access to investments Annual request for 603 types of products: foodstuffs, services, other goods was compiled and distributed among 23 potential suppliers Transparency and easy information access allows SME to develop business plans

Outputs of the first year of the Project SME, having benefited from the Project: «Model» SME, having received individual consulting: Potential suppliers Other entrepreneurs Extra income, received by companies in 2003 due to the Project activities: Created jobs Full time Part time Attracted external investments $3,195, $ 239,000
