10 Changing Models for Infrastructure Development Mary Rose Brusewitz

11 Challenges Growing need for infrastructure development: power, transport, water and waste Competition for capital and developing local markets Can basic services generate sufficient profit to attract private sector? Sustainability of profit-making by private sector for basic services Risk and responsibility allocation

16 Matching Models and Techniques Legal, political and financial environments Analysis of both successful and failed models, techniques and projects Some types of infrastructure more easily attract private sector interest and risk appetites Creativity: combining models and techniques

17 U.S. Model: Municipal Finance Legal system promotes tax exempt financing and attracts ‘local’ and ‘retail’ capital Use of ratings or ‘balance sheets’ of States or municipalities to support infrastructure development with long term financing at comparatively low cost General obligations of States or municipalities with financial institution guaranty ‘Securitized’ tax or other directed revenues Results in combined participation of public and private sectors in a variety of areas including commercial and residential real estate development and small business support, as well as basic services Key: stability of legal and regulatory structures

18 London Underground PFI and PPP Martin Stewart-Smith

19 What was PFI? Public sector procurement to seek value for money by offering the opportunity to the private sector Had to beat the “public sector comparator” Initial problems were Lack of institutional capacity Lack of understanding of risk allocation High transaction costs The fixes were Setting up of the Treasury Task Force PFI Guidelines Standardization of documentation Risk matrices

20 LUL Seeboard Powerlink PFI Needed to upgrade the power supply to the underground (1997) Technical evaluation and bidding process Scope of the PFI project Decommissioning of dedicated power stations Lots Road and Greenwich Transfer of employees and certain LUL contracts Complex regimes of dependencies and variations Total project size of over $1.04 billion Separated ownership of the distribution network from LUL Successfully closed the financing in 1999

21 What is PPP? Public Private Partnership includes PFI as well as Outsourcing Marketing of irreducible spare capacity, under the Government's Wider Markets Initiative; and Strategic partnerships between Govt and key suppliers.

22 LUL PPP Separation between deep lines and ‘cut and cover’ lines Separation of track ownership from maintenance Creation of separate bid packages Various quality criteria as output driven contracts Obligation to raise finance Transfer of employees and contracts

23 Taking a good credit… Strong cash generator The securitized bond debate Keeping the network and maintenance together Splitting the financing from the operational arrangements Public Sector Borrowing Requirement Treasury comfort letter – ‘off balance sheet’ nature of the debt The Verdict?
