Foreword
The Smart Business • Smart Development Resource Guide briefly introduces the World Bank Group's private sector activities that support sound policy development and private initiative in develop- ing countries. The World Bank Group continues to provide support to policies of member-governments that seek to expand benefits of private sector participation in economies, contributing to promoting growth, expanding markets, and alleviating poverty. The effort to alleviate poverty requires strong partnerships between governments, private sector, civil society, donors, multilateral development institutions and others. These partnerships enable governments and other agents to tap into the resources and vision of the private sector as well as the energy and commitment of the public sector and civil society, and are key to mobilizing development finance and promoting policy reform, institution building and knowledge dissemination.
The Smart Business.• Smart Development Resource Guide is a quick reference tool for govern- ments and businesses that want to partner with the World Bank Group to fight poverty with passion and contribute to development that is socially and environmentally sustainable, creating a better world for the future of our children. The hope is that it will be another step in a mutually productive relationship that will bring the developing world closer to our goals.

Introduction to the World Bank Group
The World Bank Group1 is a family of international development agencies that provides financing and advice to support development projects and economic reform in developing and emerging economies. Almost every country in the world is a member of the World Bank Group organizations. The Bank Group is headquartered in Washington, D.C., and has representative offices in more than 90 countries worldwide. The World Bank Group consists of: International Bank for Reconstruction and Development/International Development Association (IBRD/IDA) The International Bank for Reconstruction and Develop- ment (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA) share the same staff and management and together are known as the World Bank. The IBRD extends loans directly to middle-income developing country governments or to enterprises and other entities in these countries with the guarantee of the government concerned. The IBRD finances its lending operations primarily through borrowings in the world markets. IDA finances projects in the poorest countries by making credits available to them on concessional terms. The aim is to help improve the living standards of the poorest countries and achieving faster environmentally sustainable growth. The bulk of IDA resources comes from voluntary contribu- tions from its wealthier member country governments. The IBRD and IDA increasingly co-finance their projects with funds from other sources, such as governments, commercial banks, export-credit agencies, and other multilateral institutions. International Finance Corporation The International Finance Corporation (IFC) fosters sustainable economic growth in the developing world by financing private sector development, mobilizing capital in the international financial markets, and providing country, industry, financial, and technical advisory services. It is the largest multilateral source of financing for private enter- prises in emerging markets. In partnership with private investors, IFC provides loans and equity finance for business ventures in developing countries and helps them
THE WORLD BANK GROUP ● 3 stimulate the flow of savings and investment. It further promotes economic development by working to build efficient capital markets. IFC works directly with entrepre- neurs, companies, and financial institutions interested in starting a venture or expanding an existing enterprise. Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency The Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) was established in 1988 to encourage foreign direct investment in developing countries by providing: ● Investment guarantees (insurance) to private investors against the risks of transfer restriction, expropriation, breach of contract, and war and civil disturbance in the host country; ● Technical assistance and advisory services to developing countries to help them define and implement strategies to promote investment. MIGA also develops and deploys tools and technologies to support the spread of information on investment opportunities; and ● Dispute mediation, through which MIGA helps governments and investors resolve their differences, and ultimately improve the country’s investment climate. International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) is an autonomous international organization having close links with the World Bank. ICSID provides facilities for the conciliation and arbitra- tion of disputes between governments (or constituent subdivisions or public agencies) of ICSID member countries and investors (individuals or companies) that qualify as nationals of other member countries. The Centre’s objective in making such facilities available is to promote an atmosphere of mutual confidence between governments and foreign investors conducive to private international investment.

How You Can Work With the World 2Bank Group A thriving private sector is essential for sustained poverty reduction. Business activity provides jobs and incomes for millions of people who must earn a living under extremely challenging conditions. A key role of the World Bank Group’s private sector activities is to help create more opportunities for the poor, as well as access to better services. This section of the Resource Guide outlines the range of World Bank Group products and services, that are of direct interest to firms doing business in the developing world, and to developing countries eager to attract and retain private investment. If You Are An Investor Project Finance IFC offers a variety of financial products, tailored to meet the needs of each project. The bulk of the funding, as well as management and leadership responsibility, lies with private sector owners. Financial products available include: ● Loans: both fixed or variable rate loans in any of the leading currencies are available. These are IFC’s largest product and typically have maturities of seven to twelve years, although if warranted, longer-term loans and longer grace periods may be possible. ● Guarantees: useful for projects needing local currency funding. Such guarantees would be for a partial amount of the financing raised. ● Equity investments: IFC provides equity investments based on project needs and anticipated returns. IFC is never the largest single shareholder and does not take an active role in company management. IFC usually retains its equity investments for a period of eight to fifteen years and is considered a long-term investor. IFC also provides a full range of quasi-equity finance, including convertible debt, subordinated loans, preferred stock, and income notes. ● Credit lines: to developing-country banks can help redress the limited availability of term funding that constrains the ability of these banks to provide working capital and investment financing for their customers. IFC’s venture capital funds help channel flows to
THE WORLD BANK GROUP ● 7 companies that are generally unlisted and that might not receive the notice of large investors. IFC has also been active in helping establish leasing industries around the world.
Eligibility for Financing: Technical, Social, Environmental Guidelines IFC financing is generally limited to no more than 25 percent of project cost. Investments in small and medium projects range from $100,000 to $1 million and in standard-size projects from $1 million to $100 million. To be eligible for financing, a project must be in the private sector and must be financially, economi- cally, environmentally, and technically viable and conform to host country and World Bank guidelines. See IFC environmental, health, and safety guidelines www.ifc.org/enviro

8 ● PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE GUIDE If You Need Risk Management Support Guarantees of Private Debt (WB) The World Bank offers political risk mitigation products to commercial lenders contemplating financial investment in the infrastructure sectors of developing countries. Partial credit guarantees cover debt service defaults on a specified portion of a loan or a bond, allowing public sector projects to extend maturities and lower spreads. Partial risk guarantees cover debt service defaults on a loan to a private sector project caused by a government’s failure to meet its contractual obligations related to a private project. Policy based guarantees cover a portion of debt service on a borrowing by an eligible member country from private foreign creditors in support of agreed structural, institu- tional, and social policies and reforms. By covering risks the market is unable to bear, the Bank’s guarantees can open new investment opportunities for businesses. Michel Wormser Project Finance and Guarantees Department The World Bank Tel: (202) 473-7878 Fax: (202) 477-0218 URL: www.worldbank.org/guarantees Loan Syndications (IFC) IFC Syndications mobilizes private finance from interna- tional commercial banks and other financial institutions to lend to projects and companies in developing countries when IFC is also lending for its own account. The syndication of participations in IFC loans, known as the B- loan program, offers financial institutions the opportunity to participate in carefully appraised projects in developing countries while sharing the advantages that IFC derives from its status as a multilateral institution, including its treatment as a de facto preferred creditor. Member governments grant IFC loans, including B-loan participa- tions, preferential access to foreign exchange in the event of a country foreign exchange crisis. IFC loans have never been included in a general country debt rescheduling and have been exempted from mandatory country risk provisioning, where such provisioning is applicable. Working in emerging markets is IFC’s only business, and for banks seeking to mitigate risk in difficult country conditions, IFC has proven to be a valuable partner. For IFC clients, the B-loan program provides an efficient means of raising funds from the financial markets in amounts and tenors that might not otherwise be available.

IFC’s role is to bridge the credit gap between its clients and the market, generally by acting as an intermediary between the two.

MIGA-insured projects encompass a broad range of sectors, including banking, mining, manufacturing, agribusiness, telecommunications, and others. MIGA guarantees cover risks of transfer restriction, expropriation, breach of contract, war and civil distur- bance for qualified equity and equity-related investments in developing member countries. Guarantees can extend up to 15–20 years and are non-cancelable. MIGA can insure new investments originating in any member country, that are destined for any developing member country other than the country from which the investment originates. Eligible forms of foreign investment include equity, shareholder loans, and shareholder loan guaranties, provided the loans and loan guaranties have a term of at least three years. Loans to unrelated borrowers can also be insured, as long as a shareholder investment in the project is concurrently insured.

Investors signing up for the service are asked to indicate their specific interests—e.g., country/region, sector, type and size of investment. Registered users receive periodic, customized e-mails containing timely and specific updates concerning new direct investment opportunities and business environment analysis matching their expressed interests. This information is supplied primarily by public and private sector organizations in developing countries that are involved in attracting FDI. These counterpart agencies include investment promotion intermediaries (e.g., national and regional investment promotion agencies), privatization agencies, sectoral ministries promoting private investment into local infrastructure and country gateways, as well as industry associations and business chambers.
THE WORLD BANK GROUP ● 11 The Investment Promotion Network (IPAnet), MIGA’s Internet portal for international corporate investors, is a gateway to investment information resources from the World Bank Group, other multilateral institutions, investment promotion and privatization agencies and sectoral ministries, as well as private sector business information providers worldwide. Users can evaluate potential investment opportunities, analyze the business enabling environment, and obtain current research on factor costs and infrastructure. In addition, they can contact key government agencies, financing sources and support services through this portal.

This service fills a gap in international law remedies currently available to foreign investors in their disputes with host countries, where diplomatic solutions are not practical for some, and formal arbitration may be too costly for others. MIGA’s role here is to help resolve disputes before they require formal arbitration. The
12 ● PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE GUIDE Agency’s involvement as a mediator of investment disputes may also relate to a general situation that jeopardizes the ability of a particular member country to attract foreign investment. In addition, upon the request of member states, MIGA advises on the negotiation of bilateral investment treaties and other investment-related issues.

Partnership: SMExchange The SMExchange is a capacity building program which links intermediary organizations (chambers of commerce, business or trade associations, investment promotion agencies) in developed and developing countries to support SME development through the transfer of knowledge and experience. Its ultimate mission is to stimulate trade and investment between SMEs in the North and South. The program, presently implemented in the MENA region, is based on three tools designed to facilitate the knowledge transfer: 1) a website (www.smexchange.org) which contains information on capacity building programs, offered and requested, by intermediary organizations from the North and South; 2) An SMExchange Liaison Officer (SMELO) from a European intermediary organization seconded to an intermediary organization in the South for a three year period; and 3) “World Bank Group roadshows” to get the World Bank, IFC and MIGA closer to the companies in developing countries through conferences and seminars organized in partnership with intermediary organizations from Europe and the countries visited, explaining how to better use WBG private sector services.

If You Need Private Sector, Infrastructure Advice To better align and expand its work related to the private sector, the World Bank Group has created “Global Product Groups” —joint World Bank-IFC departments—for industries where there is a strong interface between public policy and private sector transactions. These Global Product Groups provide an enhanced link between the World Bank Group’s public sector work and its private sector transactions in the developing world, which are made through IFC. The World Bank helps governments to formulate policy frameworks that encourage a positive environment for business to function as the primary engine of growth. IFC provides advice and makes loans and equity investments in companies in developing countries. Private Sector Advisory Services The Private Sector Advisory Services Department (PSAS) is the joint World Bank and IFC principal advisory service on private sector issues. PSAS is a Global Product Group; its key goal is to scale up the delivery of free-standing, partially fee-based, advisory services on frontier issues in public policy for the private sector. Now working in more than 100 countries, Private Sector Advisory Services provides assistance in three related areas: i) policy, regulatory, and institutional reforms to foster a sound

Since its founding in 1985, FIAS has assisted more than 120 countries—many of them on a repeated basis over the years. Its broad cross- country experience has helped it identify the essential attributes of a sound investment environment. FIAS tailors this knowledge to the circumstances of client countries to help them reach their potential for attracting FDI. FIAS works only at the request of governments, on topics identified by the government and agreed to by both parties. This ensures the relevance of the assistance and lays the basis for active partnership. FIAS offers more than one-way advice and written reports. Through interactive workshops and roundtable meetings that often include business executives and other stakeholders, it helps governments chart technically and politically practical paths to change.

Partnership: Development Gateway Foundation The Development Gateway Foundation is a not-for- profit organization based in Washington DC. Its core mission is to reduce poverty and support sustainable development through the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). The World Bank Group is a Founding Member of the Foundation, which is governed by a Board of Directors representing donors and partners from the public sector, private sector, and civil society. The Foundation supports four programs:
22 ● PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE GUIDE Development Gateway Portal (www.developmentgateway.org) A key initiative of the Foundation, the Portal is an interactive space for knowledge sharing on develop- ment issues. The Portal offers the largest online directory for information on development projects (AiDA), an electronic procurement market (dgMarket), information on major development topics, and links to a growing network of Country Gateways (country-level initiatives). Other features include development data and statistics and a Bookstore. Network of Research and Training Centers The Network (established in developing countries) will encourage the exchange of ideas and testing of ICT-based solutions that benefit the poor. Examples could include applications to help agricultural communities obtain information on market prices, a database of basic medical knowledge for rural commu- nities, and cyber kiosks. The first center was launched in India in September 2002, and a center in the Republic of Korea is expected to be operational in late 2002. ICT Development Forum The Forum will be a venue for debate and knowledge sharing, promoting partnerships and synergies between civil society and the public and private sectors to diminish the digital divide. The Forum will also provide the development community with a venue for discussing the effectiveness of ICT for development. Plans are underway for holding the first Forum in Germany in May 2003. Grants and Investments Program The Foundation also provides funding opportunities for innovative ICT projects and programs at the local, national, regional, and global levels that are effective in helping to overcome the digital divide.

If You Are a Consultant Technical Assistance Trust Funds (IFC) IFC’s Technical Assistance Trust Funds Program (TATF) manages technical assistance (TA) programs funded under grants provided by bilateral and multilateral donors. IFC develops proposals for TA assignments that deal with risks or needs that IFC identifies in the course of its investment or advisory work in developing countries. These needs may range from technical, market, or policy risks that confront an investment project that IFC is considering, to policy, regulatory, training, or privatization assistance requested by company and government officials. TA is delivered to the beneficiaries of the TA assignment by consultants funded by donors. In most cases, the consultants are nationals from the donor country supporting the TA. Consultants may register via the TATF website shown below. Udayan Wagle Trust Funds Department IFC Tel: (202) 473-0535 Fax: (202) 974-4344 URL: www.ifc.org/tatf

32 ● PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT RESOURCE GUIDE Consulting Services World Bank–financed projects frequently require a wide range of consulting services. The procedures for selecting consultants differ from those for procuring goods and works. The emphasis is not only on cost but also on quality, performance and results. For more information, consult the Guidelines: Selection and Employment of Consultants by World Bank Borrowers at www.worldbank.org/procure/ Procurement Guidelines and Standard Bidding Documents for procurement of goods and civil works are available at: www.worldbank.org/procure/ Regional Procurement Advisors World Bank Regional Procurement Advisors oversee project procurement and may be contacted for information or assistance relating to procurement under Bank-financed projects in those countries. However, the government agency implementing the project should always be the first point of contact for bidders and consultants.

The primary instrument
THE WORLD BANK GROUP ● 33 for carrying out this exercise is the Country Procurement Assessment Report (CPAR). The main objective of the CPAR is to help governments: (a) increase their capacity to plan, manage and monitor the procurement process effectively; (b) improve the accountability, integrity, and transparency of the process and reduce the scope for corruption; and (c) be consistent with internationally accepted principles and practices. A key tenet of the CPAR is a review of the competitive- ness and the performance of local private industry with regard to public procurement. This analysis helps deter- mine the extent to which local firms can compete effectively for contracts in general and in Bank-financed projects in particular. During the process of conducting a CPAR it is strongly recommended that the team carrying out the work consult with key stakeholders, including the private sector. Consultation with the private sector can provide critical information on the shortcomings of the public procure- ment infrastructure within the government. In many cases, the local private industry acts as an important catalyst for improvements in the public procurement system. World Bank Group Procurement Procurement Under IFC-Financed Projects IFC is involved only in the financing of projects, and has no part in the procurement process. The local project company is responsible for all aspects of procurement, such as evaluation of bids and contract awards, and is the contact point for any information regarding the bidding process. The project company is identified in the Summary of Project Information (SPI) for each project. Find SPIs under “Projects & Policies” on IFC’s website www.ifc.org. Procurement by the World Bank Group The Corporate Procurement Office is responsible for acquiring goods and services for the Bank’s Washington DC Headquarters (not for World-Bank financed projects) by negotiating contracts with and issuing purchase orders to Bank vendors. This includes the acquisition of office products, furniture, office technology, software, vehicles, consulting services, communications services, printing and a variety of other contractual services.
