Introduction OPSM’s commitment to holistic, vertically

integrated development to complement growth in its lending and investment activities

OPSM has met its mandates for growth, and is increasingly seeking to enhance its products with better development support

In addition to vertical development integration, OPSM is pursuing syndicated and A/B loans modalities to recycle capital risk and increase lending in Africa

OPSM Portfolio Growth (2007-09)

2009 Activities at-a-glance

Co-financing Investment Operations

AfDB’s Private Sector now aims to attract capital for co-investment into projects in Africa

OPSM’s Co-Financing Platform includes: B-Loans with Commercial Banks

African Financing Partnership (AFP)

Parallel Financing

Bilateral Agreements

Asset Sales

Massive potential could be yielded by a first-loss guarantee scheme for OPSM’s portfolio

7

A/B Loan Structure Commercial Banks can co-finance projects under AfDB’s B-

Loan

AfDB acts as Lender-of-Record Keeps part of the loan (the A-loan) at least 25% of total loan

Sells participations to B-loan participants

B-loan participants benefit from AfDB’s Preferred Creditor Status (“PCS”) as a Multilateral Development Bank which offers: currency conversion / remittance of interest

Repatriation of principal

Exemption from withholding tax

Deterrent effect on : nationalisation, interference

8

A/B Lending Eligibility Viable and commercially operated financial institutions

Institutions NOT eligible: Banks incorporated or with head office in the country where

the borrower is incorporated or the project is located

Export credit agencies (ECAs)

Governmental, quasi-governmental, or multilateral agencies

Project sponsors and off-takers

Eligible participants require an investment grade rating In exceptional cases the AfDB may accept lower-rated or unrated

participants

African Financing Partnership

The AFP is a collaborative co-financing platform for Private Sector project financing initially among 8 DFIs for Africa.

Each DFI will make its own independent decision on participation while maximizing synergies in co-financing.

Target Operations: complex, large projects in infrastructure, industries with efficiency gains via DFI harmonization.

An MOU has been signed endorsing ‘enhanced collaboration’ by the AFP Partners.

AFP Operational Guidelines are being formalized to create framework for DFI collaboration on project financing.

AFP website is under development

Parallel Co-Financing AfDB Private Sector invites DFIs and other financial

institutions to co-finance projects in Africa

AfDB is pleased to lead or to participate in transactions originated by others

Investment and discussions with other DFI’s have included: China Development Bank

Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)

Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC)

The OPEC Fund for International Development (OFID)

Oesterreichische Entwicklungsbank AG (OeEB) Austria

Islamic Development Bank Group

And Others

11

Bilateral Agreements In order to enhance efficiency of operations, AfDB

can consider entering into Bilateral Agreements with DFI’s for co-financing Private Sector projects.

Eligible to partners willing to co-finance similar projects in Africa.

Open to both AFP and non AFP partners who wish to form a closer relationship with AfDB.

Based on applying “commercial syndication practices” to DFIs

Benefits to the Borrower by aligning DFI practices with commercial practices.

12

Sale of Assets In future AfDB likely to be more involved in

partial sales of existing assets due to; Need to fulfill the mandate of catalysing financing into

Africa

Achievement of role in initial project financing - project can be commercially financed following the initial role of the Bank

Financial capacity constraints overall or in specific countries

Sales may be achieved by; Participation by other commercial parties

DFI interest

Swaps in country/ sector or other exposure between DFI’s and commercial parties

13

First Loss Guarantee Leveraging the AfDB’s private sector

operations portfolio in low income countries to catalyze more private sector development

Two guarantee schemes: Portfolio guarantee

Performance guarantee

PSO Portfolio Risk Profile

Portfolio guarantee covers first 10% of losses on ADB’s portfolio of private sector operations (e.g. UA 200 million on a projected PSO portfolio of UA 2 billion)

By taking “first loss” the guarantee dramatically reduces the effective risk of the portfolio and thus enables the ADB to scale up its private sector operations in LICs by 3x-4x.

The “first-loss” concept successfully used by TCX, EAIF

Performance Guarantee

Guarantee covers payments from public off-taker to a private sector infrastructure project

The performance guarantee would dramatically reduce the effective risk on the project Lenders thus enabled to finance what appear to be

“unbankable” PSOs

IDA has successfully used this scheme

Enhanced Private Sector Enhanced Private Sector Assistance for AfricaAssistance for Africa

Enhanced Private Sector Assistance Initiative

Launched in 2005

Partnership with the Government of Japan

Three components:

Fund for African Private Sector Assistance (FAPA)

Accelerated Co-financing Facility for Africa (ACFA)

Loan for Non-sovereign Operations (NSL)

FAPA Approvals

Achievements to-date

Approx $42 million contributed with $26.55 million committed and $8.7 million earmarked for pipeline 31 projects throughout Africa are receiving

support

62% of approved FAPA grants are linked to other AfDB instruments/projects

42% of FAPA commitments to LICs, 45% to multinational projects and 13% to MICs

Donor & AfDB Support

Japan has contributed $32 million

AfDB Board of Governors has contributed UA 7 million

AfDB Board of Directors has shown continued and growing support for FAPA’s achievements

Indicative commitment from Austria conditional upon Multi-donor conversion

FAPA Portfolio at-a-glance

Objectives & Targets for 2010

20 projects committed to in 2010 for $17 million

Multi-donor conversion complete

Additional donors committed to financial support

FAPA extended beyond original five year term (2006-2010)

Projects with first disbursements before 31 October 2010 will have at least one supervision mission

Obstacles & Needs $8.7 million of FAPA’s $42 million remains

uncommitted and un-earmarked for pipeline If 2010 objective of $17 million in projects is

achieved, all available funding will be committed

Further commitments required to meaningfully extend FAPA beyond 2010

Growth in volume of projects may require further human resources, particularly for supervision Many FAPA projects are reaching mid-term

implementation and require proper supervision

Introduction & Background

SMEs are key players for poverty reduction and meeting the MDGs in Africa They contribute about 60% of GDP and 55% of

employment

To fulfill their developmental role SMEs need increased access to finance, particularly bank credit

Strong case for scaling up aid for SME development while increasing its effectiveness

2009: Africa Commission, appointed by Danish Prime Minister and with AfDB President Kaberuka as a member, recommended establishment of AGF to address this situation Founding partners: AfDB, Danish Government, and

IFC

Achievements to-date

Joint preparation process from September 2009 with AfDB as lead partner, involving Oversight Committee, Focal Point, Advisory Panel

Instruments designed: Guarantees

Partial loan guarantees: guarantees provided to lenders to cover part of the net losses incurred on SME loans. Delivered through a portfolio approach

Portable guarantees: letters of guarantee commitment issued to lenders to raise long-term finance for SMEs. To translate into loan guarantees

Capacity development support For financial institutions: TA to enhance lenders’ ability to do

business with SMEs

For SMEs: TA to improve borrowers’ business management skills

Major Thrusts Expected capital at start-up: USD 40 million

Envisaged capital after 5 years: USD 300 – 500 million

New partners needed to reach this: Donors for junior/first-loss capital

Development finance institutions for mezzanine capital

Private investors and foundations for senior capital

Initial countries of operation: Cameroun, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, Senegal, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.

Gradual roll-out to all African countries

Objectives & Targets for 2010

Registration of company expected in 2nd half 2010

Set-up of AGF office with CEO and key staff: 2nd half 2010

First guarantees signed: Before end 2010

Capital increases and new partners : From 2011 onwards
