🌍💰 Let's Talk Global Infrastructure Financing: The Role of International Capital Markets 🏗️📈

Hey Tumblr fam! Today, we're diving into the fascinating world of global infrastructure financing and the pivotal role that international capital markets play in shaping it. 🌐💡

🏗️ Building the Foundations: Infrastructure projects, from roads and bridges to energy grids and telecommunications, form the backbone of modern societies. However, funding these projects requires hefty investments that often exceed what governments can provide alone.

💰 Enter International Capital Markets: International capital markets, comprising stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments traded globally, serve as a vital source of funding for infrastructure development. 🌐💼 These markets allow governments, corporations, and other entities to raise capital from investors worldwide.

🌏 Connecting Global Investors: Infrastructure projects often require long-term financing, and international capital markets offer access to a diverse pool of investors seeking stable returns. 💼💡 Whether it's sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, or institutional investors, these markets facilitate the flow of capital across borders.

🔄 Benefits of Market Financing:

Risk Sharing: International capital markets enable risk-sharing among investors, reducing the financial burden on individual entities.

Access to Expertise: Investors bring expertise in project evaluation and risk management, enhancing the success of infrastructure ventures.

Innovation: Market financing encourages innovation in financial instruments and structures, fostering efficiency and sustainability in infrastructure projects.

🌱 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Infrastructure financing aligned with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is gaining momentum. International capital markets play a crucial role in funding projects that promote sustainable infrastructure, clean energy, and inclusive growth. 🌿💡

🌐 Global Connectivity and Growth: By facilitating infrastructure financing on a global scale, international capital markets contribute to economic growth, job creation, and improved living standards worldwide. 🚀🌍

The instrument is capable of breaking the vicious circle of infrastructure development. The vicious circle starts with infrastructure developers, with under-capitalised balance sheets, taking the debt-to-equity route to fund their equity investments. In addition, they borrow from various sources to finance their projects. The interest cost in the debt-equity structure, which starts accruing even while the project is under construction and has no revenue stream, starts hitting the profit and loss account and takes a toll on earnings, further worsening the balance sheet. In this context, InvITs can play an important role in creating a “virtuous cycle” of infrastructure development. The cash flow from the InvIT deleverages the balance sheet and also releases growth capital. This growth capital helps improve the project rating, which in turn, facilitates the securing of cheaper funds. This leads to higher profitability and helps the developer in undertaking new projects, which could further potentially get injected into the InvIT.

An understanding of InvITs has evolved over time, particularly among domestic investors who are gradually getting acquainted with the product. In the current scenario, investors are more cautious as they are waiting for the instrument to develop a track record, so as to assess its historical performance.

The lower-than-offer price trading of the listed InvITs is attributable mainly to three reasons. First, the product is new and is at a nascent stage. Second, the liquidity of the instrument on the exchanges is relatively low, which raises questions about its price discovery. Hence, there should be a market-making mechanism. Third, and most importantly, education and awareness about the investment vehicle are still inadequate. Also, the two listed InvITs were grossly “mis-sold” in the market, with the participation of institutional investors turning out to be lower than desired. SEBI does not allow sponsors to disclose yields from InvITs in the prospectus. Due to this, some investors, particularly retail investors, are facing problems in calculating the yields (adjusted for depreciation, etc.). Thus, the market regulator needs to proactively work on the documentation for InvITs. Further, only sophisticated investors – those that have a good understanding of the product – should be allowed to participate in InvITs.

A far more useful metric for InvITs is the net asset value (NAV), which is assessed every six months. This gives a better picture of the value at which InvITs should be trading. Laying too much emphasis on the unit price of an InvIT on the bourses will render a distorted value.

On the regulatory front, the regulations for InvITs are robust. That said, regulators have been cautious in formulating guidelines for the product given its complex structure. In order to enhance its appeal, some of the guidelines need to be tweaked. First, the high retail lot size for tapping the primary market is hampering public participation in the product. This needs to be ratcheted down for higher volume of trading and, in turn, better price discovery. Second, the leverage in such structures is capped at 49 per cent, which is too low for operational infrastructure assets. Therefore, raising the leverage to more conventional levels of 70-75 per cent will increase equity returns.

[PRESS RELEASE]

Send a City presents a project at the 5th GIB Sustainable Infrastructure Summit in Basel, May 27th & 28th 2015

Sustainable infrastructure projects are increasingly attracting financing from pension funds, money managers and other institutional investors as banks and governments remain under economic pressure. Flexible and cost-effective lending solutions and new instruments to assess and hedge projects risks could provide sustainable infrastructures projects with access to much needed credit.  

The emergence of this new financial trend and its expected impact on the economy will be analyzed by mayors, government representatives, investors, developers and credit rating agencies at the 5th GIB Sustainable Infrastructure Summit, which will host the presentation of the more interesting - and financially appealing - current infrastructure projects in need of financing.

The Summit, taking place in Basel on May 27th and 28th, will present 46 international projects, including one from Spain. The Spanish project - brought in by Send a City, a platform to implement urban and social practices in rural areas -  proposes a development for agro-pastoral communities in the Horn of Africa. According to founder Patricia Sendin: “The world still hasn’t found a way for remote communities to tap into the upside of technology, especially information technology. E-learning, remote diagnosis and virtual marketplaces, for instance, could be a game changer for rural communities, especially since these carry no cost for users. It seems extraordinary, to say the least, that the enabling physical structure is still missing.”

Patricia holds a Dipl-Ing degree in architecture and urban planning from the University of Darmstadt in Germany and has 20+ years of field experience, with over 40 singular projects delivered in 12 countries. She started her career in Paris working in infrastructure projects in Africa and continued it in London, where she worked 11 years for Pritzker Award Winner Richard Rogers.
