  7. Workshop on Large Project Finance – May 31 & June 1 Mozambique's Large Project Financings Characteristics of the soon to be developed mineral and energy projects

  8. Characteristics of Mozambique’s large Project Financings Geographic The remote nature of most of the projects brings its own challenges: • Need developers who have significant appetite and balance sheets • Mobilisation and demobilisation costs become relevant • Lack of supporting infrastructure in the project/concession area Inter modal and nodal considerations Many of Mozambique's large projects form part of Corridor developments • Energy projects: Generation linked to Transmission development • Mineral projects: Route to port becomes an issues (Moatize, CSL, Riversdale) • A coordinated approach is critical • Inter-ministerial considerations Cross border nature of projects Increases the complexity of the projects • International lawyers are necessary • Dual currency considerations (Eskom now insisting on paying for power in ZAR) • Bankability • NMPD and the inter governmental and utility issues

  9. Characteristics of Mozambique’s large Project Financings Mineral and energy focus Many of the projects are being developed in these sector areas • Mineral developments are focussed on the Tete province • Supporting infrastructure needs in the area are significant • Resettlement and social upliftment in the region is a prerogative

  10. Workshop on Large Project Finance – May 31 & June 1 Lessons that can be learnt from previous projects Characteristics of the soon to be developed mineral and energy projects

  11. Recommendations • The cost benefit of such an approach is tangible • Maputo Port took 5 years to close with a few hiccups along the way Recommendation Rationale Appoint appropriate advisers • Financial • Technical • Environmental • Legal 1 • A bespoke solution is likely to be needed for each project The same size does not fit all? • Project Financings are different in each case • Transport concession arrangements • PPP standard documentation is unlikely to work 2 • IAC members must be empowered to make decisions on behalf of the ministries/entities to which they report Creation of IAC is a good thing • Creation of a co-ordinating body that oversees the development from the governments perspective 3 • If a developer knows the government is committed to a timetable then it will be more likely to come to Mozambique Timetable • Create an investor friendly environment 4

  12. Recommendations….(continued) • Doing business in Africa is not the same as for example Europe or the US • A lot of patience is required Recommendation Rationale Strong Individuals? • Sometimes big egos get in the way of good projects 5
