Emerging trend in the global market is that…
Credit to projects declining while sovereign debt increasing
Traditional investor appetite/capacity has changed significantly and for the worse
Political, regulatory, and project risk matters more than ever
The supply of “easily” bankable projects is diminishing
… new approaches to project finance, risk mitigation and International Financial Institution support are needed

Legal protection and framework defining investor rights 63% of firms rated it a “deal-breaker” “Contract enforceability” “Clarity in market rules” [Brazil , Guatemala ] “Protection ‘to do business’ – labor laws, property rights; laws that work” “Enforceable exit strategy”
Payment discipline and enforcement36% of firms rated it a “deal-breaker” Both generation and distribution investors considered it important “We cannot fix it on our own” – government support essential “Worsening payment discipline – strong negative”
Guarantee from Government or Multilateral40% of firms rated it a “deal-breaker” “Support needed till the business becomes commercial” “Why should we take on the risk of a bankrupt business?” Interestingly not a determinant for success – mitigation is not an incentive
for default or mismanagement by government or sponsor
