Antigua and Barbuda: AUA Antigua project

American University of Antigua (“AUA” or the “University”) was founded in 2004 in Antigua and Barbuda as a for profit higher education institution which prepares students to practice medicine in the United States. Owned by the Manipal Group (“Manipal”), a global leader in education with operations in Asia, the Middle East, and the Caribbean, AUA currently enrolls over 1,400 students. The proposed project consists of providing long-term financing to support the origination of new loans for AUA students over the next three years (the “Project”). Prior to the global financial crisis, AUA students had been able to directly obtain long-term financing from U.S. private commercial banks.

Continued attraction of offshore medical students to Antigua is expected to have positive impact on the local economy by supporting in a sustainable fashion: (i) increased tax collections; (ii) development of the island nation’s tourism and other service related industries (property management, catering, construction, etc.); and (iii) employment of local support staff. While Antigua and Barbuda’s small population of 80,000 enjoys a reasonable standard of living, the island nation is susceptible to external factors (lower remittances, reduced tourism revenues, natural disasters) and remains one of the most indebted (as % of GDP) nations in the region.

Manipal’s global approach to education provides flexibility in the deployment of medical workers and use of educational infrastructure. AUA’s program fulfills a specific U.S. market requirement, while also potentially reducing the relocation of non-U.S. nationals who might otherwise leave markets also experiencing medical shortages.

AUA’s affiliation with the Mount St. John’s teaching hospital in Antigua provides financial and potentially medical support to a medical facility that supports local patient care. In addition, AUA has established, in collaboration with the Antiguan government, the Center for Tropical Diseases, an institution that conducts research on infectious diseases particular to Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia, and Africa. Both types of collaboration support improvement of the health and living condition of the local population.

Total project cost: $30 million

Argentina: Transportation and Warehousing of Exolgan S.A project

Exolgan S.A. operates the second largest container port terminal in Buenos Aires. The terminal is located at the Dock Sud area, about 8 km south of BA. The terminal handled about 500,000 TEU in 2007.

Exolgan is implementing an investment program including (1) dredging, construction and extension of the berths and the container yard, (2) purchase of new equipment and land; and (3) other investments including upgrading IT system and facilities.

The project will strengthen the Argentine port sector by helping to expand a key container handling facility to better serve Argentine exports and imports. As cargo volumes continue to grow with Argentina’s economic growth and increasing integration with global markets, port facilities will need to be expanded and modernized. The investment will help address Argentina’s need for additional port capacity and increase trade by helping ensure the efficient and timely export of containerized cargo. The investment would help to: (i) reduce the cost of transportation and thereby benefit shippers, shipping lines and consumers alike, (ii) encourage neighboring ports to increase their own efficiency and, therefore, serve as a catalyst for increased trading activity in the country; and (iii) result in more revenues (port fees) to Argentina and additional employment.

The Total project is estimated at $102 million.

Belarus: Wholesale and Retail Trade project

During the Construction phase, Strominvest will act as the project administrator and main contractor at an arms-length basis and Erilin will provide for the necessary financing. On completion of construction, the building’s ownership will be transferred to Erilin. Total project cost on completion is estimated to be around EUR16 million (approximately $24 million equivalent). 50% of the project cost up to EUR8 million ($12 million equivalent) is financed by Erilin, of which EUR5.1 million ($7.7 million equivalent) has already been provided, and IFC has been approached to provide the balance 50%, up to EUR8 million (approximately $12 million equivalent), to Erilin as a long-term loan.

The project will support a private sector company to diversify its operations as well as facilitate the development of the commercial infrastructure in Minsk by addressing the current commercial building supply shortage. It is also expected that the availability of Class A buildings will facilitate the entrance of Russian and other international businesses into Belarus, thereby contributing to FDI inflows and private sector development. IFC’s requirement for Strominvest to implement and maintain high environmental, fire and life safety and social standards, including utilizing international Property Appraiser, obtaining Construction All Risk and Property Damage insurances will have a demonstration effect on other firms in the industry.

The project will create new employment, both directly and indirectly. It will provide additional direct employment in the maintenance and service areas. In addition, temporary employment will be provided to local labor during the construction phase.

The project cost is estimated at about $23 million.

Cambodia: Transportation and Warehousing project

The project will have a significant development impact on the Cambodian economy. The RGC is aggressively promoting tourism, especially in the Angkor temple complex near Siem Reap and the coastline near Sihanoukville. Tourism has the potential to become one of the most important sectors of the economy. Expansion and modernization of the airports’ infrastructure is viewed as critical to the RGC’s coordinated efforts to grow the tourism industry as the airports are an essential component of the infrastructure required to support international tourism to Cambodia. In this context, the proposed project would expand the international airports of SIA and SRIA and help the country develop the value of its unique cultural assets of Angkor temples and its coastline. The project will also raise operating efficiency and service levels at SRIA and SIA by adjusting airside and landside capacity to expected passenger traffic, and help SCA meet performance standards established under the Concession Agreement. Finally, the project’s success will encourage foreign investments and further private sector participation in infrastructure projects in Cambodia and privatization of airports in East Asia in general.

The proposed project consists of:

- The terminal capacity increase at SRIA to provide service to the increasing passenger growth;
- The capital investments required at SIA in 2008-10, should traffic at the airport increase in accordance with the company’s projections.

Chile: Hydro power plant in VII Region of Chile

The company’s initial project, Lircay, is a 20 Megawatt (MW) run-of-river hydropower project located along the Lircay River in the VII Region of Chile, approximately 30 km to the northeast of the city of Talca. The project is expected to have a construction period of approximately 18-24 months. The Lircay hydropower project takes advantage of water rights owned by the Canal Maule Association, a long-established irrigation group formed mainly by medium and small agriculturists and with approximately 2,200 shareholders. The Association utilizes water in the Maule River that is stored upstream in the Maule Reservoir, diverted at the Armerillo intake and distributed through two primary canals – Maule Norte Alto and Maule Norte Bajo. The Lircay project is made possible through a surplus of water during wet periods of the year and as a result of topographic relief at a point on the Maule Norte Bajo that over looks the confluence of the Corel and Lircay rivers. Up to 28.20 m3/sec of canal flow and a head of 107 meters are available at this location. During the season of irrigation (mid-September through mid-April) water is available for power generation only to the extent that flow exceeds irrigation requirements. The rest of the year water is available up to the 54.32 m3/sec of water rights owned by the Association. The company has used the 40-year period of record for flow in the Maule River to optimize the size of the Lircay plant for year-round operation. Infrastructure required for the Lircay project includes a diversion structure on the Maule Norte Bajo canal, a 2,950 meter-long canal to bring the diverted water to a point overlooking the powerhouse, a 520 meter long steel penstock pipe to the powerhouse, and a powerhouse with two Francis-type turbine-generator groups with a 9.7 MW capacity each. Water flow required for the powerhouse at full generating capacity is 22 m3/sec. As part of the project the company will also construct a 25 km transmission line to CGE’s Maule Substation in San Clemente.

The total project cost is estimated at $23.3 million.

Philippines: Nickel, Gold and Copper-gold exploration project in Philippines

The company is continuing exploration activities in the Agusan del Norte Region to definine a nickel laterite deposit which would support development of processing and refining facilities. The company is also continuing exploration activities for copper and gold on its Agusan del Norte tenements while developing partnerships for continuing exploration of tenements in Batangas, Luzon island and other exploration tenements. The Agusan del Norte Region is an established gold producing district with high potential to become a major copper-gold camp. Mindoro has multiple gold and copper-gold targets in the Surigao District at varying stages of drill evaluation.

Rising commodity prices in the past three years have led to renewed investment and interest in the sector which still has huge untapped potential including for copper, gold and for nickel, as the Philippines has some of the worlds largest nickel laterite deposits. These nickel deposits in particular have the potential to be the basis for a very significant nickel refining industry positioned to take advantage of fast growing demand, especially from China. The proposed project is one of a number of private sector initiatives to explore and define a world class nickel deposit suitable for large scale development of a mining and local nickel processing facility. The company will in parallel continue gold and copper exploration, both for its own account and with its joint venture partners.

India: Toyota Kirloskar Motors project

Toyota Kirloskar Motors, which is gearing up to launch its first small car from Bidadi in Karnataka by end-2010 has got another bonanza from the state govt which has granted an exemption to the Japanese car manufacturer from paying entry tax on equipment brought into the state over the next three years. Waiving off the 2 per cent entry tax and cess will tantamount to savings worth Rs. 80 crore for Toyota Motor Corporation. It was reported earlier that the Indian arm of the Japanese auto giant, which is expanding its manufacturing facility at Bidadi on city outskirts, will be establishing a new assembly line for its small car at an investment of about Rs 3,200 crore. Starting next year, Toyota aims to produce 70,000 units of its compact car in India every year.

India: Giant Peugeot set up a manufacturing plant project

French car giant Peugeot is set to launch itself in India next year. The company may set up a manufacturing plant either somewhere in Andhra Pradesh or in Tamil Nadu. There are reports that the company is already in negotiations in the two states with state governments.

The plan involves expansion on two fronts. Firstly, Peugeot plans on developing new models to compete in segments where it currently does not compete. Collin figures the French automaker currently competes in 72% of market segments, but wants to get that figure up to 90%. Despite Peugeot's sportscar racing program, the company is not prepared to build a pure sportscar any more hardcore than the upcoming 308 RC Z sports-coupe. It is pursuing government funding to develop a diesel-hybrid drivetrain, however, which might be key to its expansion.
