FINANCING INFRASTRUCTURE ROLE OF IIFCL

Prof D. C. Pai

India Growth Story continues

Indian economy has shifted to high growth trajectory


GDP growth for 2007-08 was 9% 2008-09 growth was at 6.75% 2009-10 growth forecasted at above 8% Fundamentals remain strong despite global uncertainties / melt downs.

Right policy mix can help sustain the growth momentum

Infrastructure deficit is looming

Robust economic growth has resulted in overstretched infrastructure Infrastructure constraint is threatening to become binding on growth 11th Five Year Plan (2007-2012) has envisaged total investment requirement of infrastructure sector at $515 billion
$150 billion is to come from private sector Large part of remaining is to come as debt component from banks and other institutions

PPP model is being encouraged

Constraints in promotion of PPP


Inadequate availability of long term finance (10 years plus tenor) Lack of capacity in public institutions to manage PPP Absence of shelf of bankable infrastructure projects Need for greater acceptance of PPPs by public - user charges

Slew of measures by Government


Opening of infrastructure sectors for private and foreign investment Promotion of levy of user charges Evolving model concession agreements Viability Gap Funding (VGF) scheme Setting up of India Infrastructure Finance Company Ltd (IIFCL) Establishment of India Infrastructure Development Fund (IIPDF) with corpus of Rs100 crore

India Infrastructure Finance Co Ltd

Urban Infrastructure Finance:

New Financing Initiatives & Problems Relating To Old Methods

Presentation Structure

Old methods of financing urban infrastructure projects Common issues in infrastructure financing

New methods
Challenges

Way forward

Old Methods

Of financing urban infrastructure projects

Traditional Financing Methods


By

the Government By the Local Authority By the Utility/ Agency


through budgetary allocation through own resources through loans taken by the State/ LA/ Agency

Characteristics of Old methods


Generally

based on state/ sovereign guarantees Not on a Project Recourse basis, with demonstrated project viability Generally short/ medium tenure

Some concerns with old methods


Improper project selection, on grounds other than inherent sustainability Creation of large capital assets, but with poor operations, maintenance, management

AND - State/ agencies running out of financial resources and guarantee capacity

However...
In

urban infrastructure, the old method still largely continues to be the current practice for raising finances

Infrastructure Investment
As per the India Infrastructure Report, estimated infrastructure investment up to the 11th 5 year plan ending 2011 estimated is about $575 billion. The estimated actual investment is of the order of 30%, all said Adding the backlog of investment, the requirement for further investment in infrastructure is therefore gargantuan

This represents both an opportunity and a challenge

Changing Mindsets

About half of the investment requirement for infrastructure can be raised by the Government/ Agencies
The balance funds have to be raised from private sources
There is rapidly growing awareness at all levels that a partnership has to be forged with the private sector developers and/or investors

Common Issues

In infrastructure financing

Common Issues In Infra Financing 1


Possible

higher cost of services

User willingness-to-pay Or Willingness to Charge? Cost

of Service should consider inefficiencies in existing players


ULBs, Water Boards, etc

Cross

subsidy (existing and possible) to be taken into account

Common Issues In Infra Financing 2


Need

for proper demand estimation

E.g., Water or Energy Demand


Consideration of Competition for services E.g: Alternate sources, cheaper power

Stable

and clear Government Policy regime:


Lack of clarity effects development and investments

Common Issues In Infra Financing 3


Need

for proper Regulatory Structures, generally on a common basis across the country:
Urban Services (including water), Transport projects (roads, airports, pipelines), have no regulatory frameworks in place

Mantras & Magic Bullets


No

Mantras and Magic Bullets!

While there are many essential precepts to establishing and improving urban infrastructure services, the need of the day is a coherent and concerted attempt by all stakeholders working in a partnership

Some Key Precepts


Reform

(of methods and practices)

Accounting Procurement Technical and process control


These are important and vital conditions, but not sufficient in themselves to address the problems on hand

Some Key Precepts


Privatization

of services

Private sector brings in certain efficiencies, skills and investments


But in Urban Infrastructure, it is more essential to forge a strong partnership between the skills, efficiencies and risk appetites of the Government agencies and the Private Sector

Some Key Precepts


User

Pay

User charges have to be kept in line with the cost of providing services
But in Urban Infrastructure there are social issues, willingness-to-charge issues, and questions of affordability for essential services. A clear balance has to be struck between user charges, subsidies, and risk allocation between the Government and the Private Sector

New Methods

Of financing urban infrastructure projects

Project Recourse Financing

Various attempts are being made to convert Urban Services (water, waste-water, Solid waste, etc) into Bankable projects
This is likely to open a new area for investments And a new breed of Operating companies to provide these services But projects have to be systematically identified, structured and developed

Infrastructure Funds
Set

up by a collaboration of government agencies, Financial Institutions (and in some cases, Developers)


Dedicated funds Debt and/or equity Diversified set of infrastructure projects

Private Financing of Public Infrastructure (PFPI)

In this format, the State purchases Services rather than assets


For instance, purchases pre-determined hospital services for the public, on a determinate payment plan for a fixed (long) period Rather than paying up-front for a hospital construction

Would be a fresh approach to involve private sector participation in India, especially in new areas

New Financial Instruments


To

address the typical asset-liability mismatch of long-gestation infrastructure projects To facilitate participation of banks and other commercial institutions which cannot lend long-term money
IDFCs take-out structures are a step in this direction

Pool Finance Structures


Financial Institutions/ Investors

Credit Enhancing Structures (Guarantees, DSRA)

Pool Fund

Set of projects, with diversified risk-return profiles

The Way Forward:

Convergence

Clear Policy/ Legislative Framework


Many

projects are stalled because the policy and legislative framework has not been properly thought-through and/or put in place
This includes the procurement strategy And acceptable risk allocation frameworks

Project Development

State and its agencies have to deploy adequate resources to properly develop a bankable shelf of projects
Else difficult to attract private sector interest Leap into the dark process

State and private sector need to think seriously about setting aside adequate, dedicated project development funds

Equity Funds
Need

for adequate equity investments

Strategic investors in infra projects may not be in a position to raise a substantive portion of the equity
GoI

nominating IDFC as a Nodal Agency for an Infrastructure Equity Fund with participation of other financial institutions is a step in this direction

State and Local Initiatives


More

and more State Governments and even Local Bodies are commencing Public-Private-Partnership initiatives
IDFCs own experience with iDECK (Karnataka), Uttaranchal, TN, Kerala, and many other States reflects the imperative need felt by the States to fast forward infrastructure development at a local level

Suggested Approach
To

fix the leaking buckets

Before opting for large capex projects


Develop

replicable frameworks

Identify GDP drivers From successful pilot projects


Have

a City Focus/ Strategy

Instead of spreading too thin

Last, but not ...


Sustained

will on the part of all stakeholders (including political and social commitment) to implement projects as soon as possible, and put the country on a fast-track development path!

Infrastructure Financing and Commercial Banks

State Bank of India Project Finance-SBU

Infrastructure Financing and Commercial Banks


Infrastructure Development is certain to turn into a growth Driver for future Development. With the concept of universal Banking taking roots in the system and relaxations permitted by RBI from time to time, Commercial Banks have shown enthusiasm in participating in this specialised field of financing. SBI has established a Project Finance Strategic Business Unit. Specialised domain knowledge in power, roads, ports, telecom etc is available.

State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Infrastructure Financing and Commercial Banks- contd


There is a large potential for commercial banks to further develop this area of business. Commercial Banks face two major issues in participating in infrastructure projects: a) Assets Liability Mismatch. b) Exposure to market risk.

State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Asset Liability Mismatch


Banks usually carry short term liabilities. The infrastructure loans are long term in nature, usually 10-12 years. The present financing structure is usually 70% debt and 30% equity, the debt coming from FIs and Banks. To address Asset Liability Mismatch related issues, the worldwide practice is to have bond financing either at initial stage or more often project finance being taken out by bond financing after commercial operation. Advantages of bond financing: - rating required, better disclosure. - closer monitoring, better discipline in reserves maintenance. - better discipline required by project company because cost overrun, delays etc would lead to problems. - Exit option available to the Banks/FIs.
State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Exposure to Market Risk


Market Risk arises from: (a) Tariff fixation (b) Payment security mechanism (c ) Offtake Risk (d) Toll Fixation (e) Lack of market intelligence Banks have an expertise and appetite for appraising and taking on credit risk. The market risk associated with Infrastructure would need to be addressed.

State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Exposure to Market Risk- contd


A mechanism needs to be put in place to facilitate banks in mitigating market risk. Power Sector: 1. Payment mechanism. 2. Fallback mechanism. 3. Dispute settlement mechanism. Road Sector: 1. Toll alone may not be adequate to make projects viable. 2. International practice of providing additional revenues from support structures such as real estate, restaurants, shopping, township etc.
State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Exposure to Market Risk- contd


Hydrocarbon Sector: 1. Level playing field for all players. 2. Independent Regulatory body. Telecom Sector: 1. Level playing field for all players. 2. Issues relating to Inter-Connect Usage charges (IUC). Other Sectors: 1. Revenue shortfall support mechanisms.

State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Suggestions
Establishing of Project Working Group: Projects often face problems which need to be resolved quickly. A working group of high level functionaries required for each sector to resolve problems in a timely manner. In some ways akin to the erstwhile working group for project exports. Hedge Funds: Hedge Funds may be considered for providing credit enhancement to the Lenders. Projects may contribute to the corpus to assist the future green field projects.

State Bank of India Project Finance- SBU

Suggestions- contd
Rating of Projects: All large projects, say exceeding Rs.1000 cr may be rated by external agencies. This would facilitate raising resources from market. Single Window Mechanisms for approvals: All mandatory approvals may be given on a single window basis which would facilitate expeditious commencement of project implementation. Banks may be permitted to provide bridge financing against budgetary support.

PROJECT FINANCEAn overview

R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer

What is Project Financing ?


A funding structure, that relies on future cash flow from a specific development as the primary source of repayment with that developments assets,rights,and interests legally held as collateral security. It is an option granted by the financier exercisable when the entity demonstrates that it can generate cash flows in accordance with the long term cash flow forecasts.
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 89

Contd.
It involves Financing of an economically separable capital investment project The providers of funds look primarily to the cash flow from the project as the source of funds to service their loans Provide the return of and return on their equity invested The terms of debt & equity securities are tailored to the cash flow characteristics of the project.

R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer

Basic Features
An agreement by financially responsible parties to complete the project and make available all funds necessary to achieve completion An agreement (in the form of purchase contract of out put) that on project completion & commencement of operation the project will have available sufficient cash to meet all its operating expenses and debt service requirements, even if the project fails to perform for any reasons
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 92

Contd.
An assurance that, in the event of disruption in operations and additional funds are required for restoring it, necessary funds will be made available through insurance recoveries, advances against future deliveries or through some other means It is different from conventional direct financing on a firms general credit. In project financing, the project assets, project related contracts & project cash flow are segregated to a great degree from the sponsoring entity
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 93

Contd.

Project financing is not a means of raising funds to finance a project that is so weak economically, that it may not be able to service the debt or provide an acceptable rate of return to equity investors. Project financing requires careful financial engineering to allocate the risks and rewards among involved parties in a manner that is mutually acceptable. The key to successful project financing is structuring the financing part with as little recourse as possible to the sponsor while at the same time providing sufficient credit support through guarantees or undertakings of sponsor so that lenders will be satisfied with credit risk.
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 94

Requirements of Project Financing


A project has no operating history at the time of initial debt financing Its credit worthiness depends on the indirect credit support provided by third parties through contractual arrangements Lenders require assurance that once the project is set up and operations begin it will constitute an economically viable undertaking.This calls for a detailed project analysis
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 95

Facets of project Analysis


Market analysis What would be the aggregate demand of the proposed product/service in future ? What would be the market share of the project under consideration? Technical analysis Whether the pre-requisites for successful commissioning of the project have been considered? Whether reasonably good choices have been made in regard to location,size, process etc.

4/15/2012

R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer

96

Project Analysis- contd.


Financial Analysis

whether the project will be financially viable to meet the debt service burden and the return expectation of providers of capital.It involves:

Investment outlay and cost of project, Means of Financing, Cost of Capital Projected profitability, Break-even point, Cash flow of the project, Investment worth while ness judged in terms of various criteria of merit, Projected financial position, Level of risk.

4/15/2012

R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer

97

Project Analysis- contd.


Economic Analysis Focus on social cost and benefits of project which may be different from its monetary costs and benefits. It involves finding out;
What are the direct economic benefits and costs of the project measured in terms of shadow(efficiency) prices and not in terms of market prices? What would be the impact of the project on the distribution of income in the society? What would be the impact of the project on the level of savings and investment in the society? What would be the contribution of the project towards fulfillment of certain merit wants like self sufficiency,employment etc?

What is a viable project financing? The project must be backed by strong credit backing, Financial viability must be provable Supply contract for product and/or energy must be ensured at a cost consistent with fin. Projections Market for the product or service must be assured at a price consistent with fin. Projections Transportation of product into or out of project must be assured at a cost consistent with projections
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 101

Contd.
Expertise of contractor to construct the project facility must be established Financial capability and technical expertise must be available to cover cost over runs Reliability of the process and equipment to be used must be well established The sponsor or the beneficiary of the sponsorship must have available expertise to operate such a facility. Dependence on outside expertise should be discouraged
4/15/2012 R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer 102

Contd.
In addition to operating expertise , management personnel must be available, otherwise the project is a suspect. Properties and facilities being financed must have value as collateral Political environment for location of project and type of project must be reasonably friendly and stable

4/15/2012

R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer

103

Contd.
The sponsor must make equity contribution consistent with its capability, interest in project and risk in the project An adequate insurance programme must be available both during construction and operation Any required Govt. approvals must be available

Causes for Project Failures


Delays in completion with consequent delay in the contemplated revenue flow, Capital cost over run Technical failure Financial failure of contractor Govt. interference Uninsured casualty losses Increased price or shortage of raw materials Technical obsolescence of the plant Loss of competitive position in market place Expropriation Poor management The 4/15/2012 above risks must be properly addressed and avoided R.Rengarajan, Consultant Trainer
