A comprehensive development model for Africa • Forward integration by farmers and backward integration by the many end users of Bio energy • More acreage put into production, more income for farmers • Creation of thousands of jobs in newly constructed plants • Appreciation in farm and other real estate values • Creation of ancillary industries and services in various sectors • Supply chain and logistic companies to meet requirements by palm, oilseeds and ethanol producers • Training and development firms to support managers and employees of ethanol plants and for related industry players • R&D firms to advance the technology and discover new technologies • Local population may get access to cheaper fuel • Potential to bring in venture capital to provide these start-ups with capital required • Higher number of local plant owners will yield a higher economic impact through tax receipts to local governments
Is this growth model suited for Africa, and how can it produce an attractive rate of return over time? The Methodology for investing is about evaluating investment allocation • Strategies and risks associated • Is it really entrepreneurial? Free market or state control ? • Within the Bio energy value chain: who will really make the money as power in the channel shifts over time (growers, refiners, big energy companies, wholesale distributors, retail sellers)? • Analysis goals • Identify portfolio strategies • Determine investment allocation guidelines • Identify the level of risk capital available or the investment requirements for risk capital • Assess the risk to the overall portfolio • Earnings at risk and equity value implications • Credit at risk and downgrade risk implications • Iterative process • Evaluate current “risk capital” available • Ranking of the investment opportunities • Structuring of investment scenarios among business units
Second conclusion • Use petrodollars windfalls to develop Africa to a new Agricultural age for producing Energy • Make money and do good in creating Value through a purchase transaction in which you buy or build asset at a bargain • Be part of a Global Entrepreneurial Revolution
Don’t stay on the side line, be part of the African development “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” M. Gandhi
