4、d create assets that are long-lived and location-specific). Creation of Infrastructure has economics both of scale and scope (i.e., minimum size of facilities, inelastic adjustment of capacity to demand, long term project completion, etc.). Transport supply systems contain elements of natural monopo

5、ly. Demand is wide spread (difficult to target). Revenues are usually in local currency (mismatch if foreign debt financing). Services have an essentiality component that raise legitimate public policy concerns of affordability. However Transport has a great impact on poverty alleviation and MDGs. S

6、ound transport infrastructure allows countries to integrate to the global economy and increases competitiveness,4,The Role of the Private and Public Sector,There is limited affordability in the provision of most of the transport services (when including the costs of the required infrastructure facil

7、ities), specially when considering low income end-users. Affordability is determine by household income levels and the cost of delivering the transport service. Transport services has strong characteristics as a public good and creates major positive externalities. Full cost recovery is only possibl

8、e in some situations (i.e., air transport). Most of the public mass transportation system have strong limitations to reach full cost recovery even in developed markets.There is a role for the provision of “smart” subsidies to make possible the delivery of the service.

Need to develop PPPs approaches as a procurement tool for better and efficient allocation of scarce public sector resources (the

Need to develop an adequate risk management framework to manage contingent liabilities arising for public money support to PPPs development.,“PPP hold the promise of increasing the supply of infrastructure without overburdening a countrys public finances. An infusion of

16、 private capital and management can ease fiscal constraints and boost efficiency ” IMF, Finance & Develoment, December 2004,7,Public Private Partnerships: Basics,PPPs are contractual arrangements between the public sector and a private sector party for the private delivery of public infrastructure s

17、ervices or other basic services. PPPs are complex structures, involving different parties, long and demanding negotiations and relatively high transaction costs. PPPs are a procurement tool where the focus is payment for delivery of services rendered (outputs outcomes). Transfer of the performance r

Political, regulatory and macro-economic risks should be allocated to the party best suited to deal with them (government, international financial instituti

19、on, private insurers). Contract payments are usually structured in such a way that the public authority and / or users pay only for services rendered satisfactorily and not for assets, which are inputs to service provision. Revenues are generated via: (i) user fees, (ii) government payments (subsidi

32、oney : Case of Toll Roads,Consider a case, in which the privately financed firms sells to end users, not the government or SOE, and, to simplify, consider three types of risk. Construction, operating, and maintenance cost risks: private sector normally has most influence over these costs, so governm

33、ent does not benefit from bearing them. Price risk: if government controls the toll, it probably benefits from bearing price risk (that is, from agreeing to compensate if it doesnt increase toll according to concession contract). Demand risk (given price): appropriate policy is less clear. Neither f

34、irm nor government may have much influence. Decision needs to consider other aspects of “managing” risk: who can best forecast and anticipate demand to determine whether to build road? Who can best absorb the risk?,14,Demand risk in toll road,Whether government should bear demand risk in toll roads

35、is therefore controversial Chile, Colombia, Korea, and Spain, for example, have provided revenue guarantees (often in return for upside risk sharing). (Italy and Turkey gave revenue guarantees for privately financed railways in the nineteenth century: “PPPs” are not new.) Australia, Canada, United S

36、tates have not. Target any guarantee to the real problem: Is total demand risk the issue or is it whether government will build a competing road or complete a planned complementary road or port? Is risk the problem, or is it just that government doesnt want to set tolls high enough to consider costs

37、? If so, a subsidy may be better.,15,Valuing revenue guarantees,Step 1. Develop model of traffic revenue that allows for random fluctuation (that is, risk) as well as trend rates of growth. Step 2. For the trend, take forecasts traffic-revenue growth developed for tendering the toll road. Step 3. Es

38、timate the expected size of traffic revenue fluctuation (risk), from previous Indonesian or international experience. Step 4. Estimate consequent expected payments by government (see next slides). Step 5. Discount those expected payments at the risk-free rate to get the value of the guarantee. (Poss

39、ible addition to Step 4: adjust expected cash flows for an estimate of risk, using the capital-asset-pricing model).,16,Forecast and guaranteed revenue on hypothetical toll road,17,A possible good outcome,18,A possible bad outcome,19,Valuation: Frequency distribution of government payments in 2016 (

This is a necessary

41、first step In the decision-making process for public sector options For infrastructure development.,20,Transport Infrastructure: Developing Local Capital Markets,There is no best substitute for foreign exchange risk mitigation than matching the currency revenue generation with the currency of debt p

42、ayment services (matching assets and liabilities). Financing transport facilities and services (local currency based) in the foreign debt markets adds substantial risk to the structuring of adequate PPPs creating the need for additional public money support. Local institutional investors (I.e., pens

43、ion funds, insurance companies, life annuities, etc.) have a natural demand for long-term local currency debt instruments to match their liabilities. In most cases, local capital markets initiate their development via the creation of a sovereign bond market (long-term yield curve). After the establi

44、shment of such market, investors develop a need to diversify the risk profile of their investments and the return mix, providing the incentives for the development of a private bond market, creating the opportunity for the introduction of infrastructure or utilities bonds (long-term annuities). It i

45、s in the governments best interest to stimulate, via adequate securities regulation and institutional investors overseeing, the development of local capital markets as a source of long-term local currency funding for needed PPPs infrastructure projects.,21,Developing Local Capital Markets : Chile So

46、urce: IMF, Fiscal Affairs Dept.,January 2005,By the early 1990s, a sizable infrastructure gap had emerged in Chile, and significant investment was needed to prevent transportation and other bottlenecks from becoming a major obstacle to future growth A challenge for the government was to close this g

47、ap while maintaining fiscal discipline that had placed public debt on a rapidly declining path. The solution lay in promoting private sector involvement in the provision of public infrastructure through public-private partnerships (PPPs). Chile thus embarked on an ambitious concessions program in 19

48、94, centered around a number of projects to develop the highway network. The concessions program in Chile covers 44 contracted projects with a total value of US$5.7 billion (about 6 percent of 2004 GDP). These include: 8 projects to rehabilitate and upgrade the Route 5 highway which runs the length

49、of Chile, with financing from tolls (US$2 billion); 11 other highway projects for connecting roads to Route 5 (US$1.3 billion); 10 airport projects (US$240 million); 6 urban road projects (US$1.8 billion); and 9 other projects (including prisons, public buildings, a reservoir, for US$360 million). A

50、pproximately 75% was funded in the local capital markets via local currency infrastructure bonds.The government provides guarantees to concession operators. A minimum revenue guarantee is provided for highway and airport concessions, under which concession firms are compensated when traffic or traffic revenue falls below an annual threshold. In return for the minimum revenue guarantee, the concession firm enters into a revenue sharing agreement in which it shares a percentage of revenue with the government once a threshold is exceeded.,
