Initiatives in the equity market for infrastructure .................................................................. 33 4 BACKGROUND 1. As highlighted in the communiqué from G20 Finance Ministers and Central Banks Governors (26-27 February 2016, Shanghai), there is strong interest in advancing the global investment agenda, with a focus on infrastructure development, both in terms of quantity and quality. This work undertaken by the G20 Investment and Infrastructure Working Group (IIWG) in 2016 involves three main pillars: Pillar 1: Strengthening the role of MDBs and calling on them to take joint actions to further support infrastructure investment. Pillar 2: Promoting global infrastructure connectivity through enhanced cooperation and synergy among regional/national infrastructure initiatives. Pillar 3: Exploring diversified financing approaches and fostering private financing for infrastructure investment. 2. Under Pillar 3, the OECD, building on earlier work and working in close collaboration with the WBG, IMF and other international organisations, developed a report seeking to identify ways to diversify infrastructure financing approaches. Special attention was paid to equity financing and capital markets development, engaging institutional investors, and exploring the potential of describing infrastructure investments as an asset class. Also, under Pillar 3, the WBG has prepared a policy note on local currency infrastructure bonds. Furthermore, the Global Infrastructure Hub (GIH) presented at the April Washington DC meeting of Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors a report on knowledge sharing, with an emphasis on fostering infrastructure investments in developing countries. 3. The IIWG first met under the Chinese Presidency on 16 December 2015 in Sanya to engage its members on this work. In support to the IIWG, the G20/OECD Task Force on Institutional Investors and Long-term Financing (the "Task Force") met on 17-18 March to initiate this important work stream and discussed the outline of the guidance and supporting documents. 4. The Task Force agreed on the main directions of the outline and also highlighted that the financing tools suitable for infrastructure may not be applicable for SMEs, given the different nature of infrastructure and SME financing. In this regard, two separate supporting documents, led by the OECD, have been prepared for infrastructure and SME financing, respectively. 5. A progress report including the draft outline was sent to Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting in Washington DC in April, after agreement by the IIWG. This document contains a third version of the supporting note on diversified financing instruments for infrastructure. It has been revised based on several rounds of comments provided under the written process on the first and second version and feedback received at the 12th meeting of the G20/OECD Task Force on Institutional Investors and Long-term Financing held on 26 April in Singapore and the G20 IIWG meetings, held on 28 April in Singapore and on 2 June in Bali. As decided in Singapore, several more detailed recommendations were transferred to the supporting note from the guidance note. 6. This report involves new research but also substantially draws on IIWG member contributions and Task Force meetings, and inputs from other organisations such as the IMF (for section 1), the WBG and GIH. In Annex 2 to this document is included the previous addendum to the Supporting Note including selected examples of recommended policy steps to diversifying sources

This supplement collectively refers to registered representatives and investment advisor representatives as “Financial Professionals.” Investment Services and Advice Cambridge A Cambridge registered representative may offer recommendations to you for each security transaction. A registered representative is obligated to have a reasonable basis for believing that any recommendation is in your best interest and will meet your investment goals and objectives with an appropriate amount of risk that you have set for your account. You cannot grant discretion to your registered representative to buy, sell, or exchange securities on your behalf. The registered representative must contact you for approval prior to purchasing, selling, or exchanging securities for your account. You may also contact your registered representative to buy, sell, or exchange securities but you must select the asset, amount, and action to buy, sell, or exchange. A commissionable account may be more appropriate if you want to maintain greater control over your investments, but still want the benefit of a registered representative’s guidance. A registered representative may recommend specific security transactions but is not obligated to provide ongoing management of your account. Your registered representative may be compensated by receiving a commission which can be charged to your account for a buy, sell, or exchange transaction. There may be ticket charges or additional fees charged by the qualified custodian for executing a transaction, which the registered representative does not receive.

FOREWORD Foreword This taxonomy of instruments and incentives for infrastructure financing maps out the investment options available to private investors, and which instruments and incentives are available to attract private sector investment in infrastructure. The coverage of instruments is comprehensive in nature, spanning all forms of debt and equity and risk mitigation tools deployed by governments and agents. While the taxonomy is meant to capture all forms of private infrastructure finance techniques, a focus of this work is to identify new and innovative financing instruments and risk mitigation techniques used to finance infrastructure assets. Part I of this report provides the foundation for the identification of effective financing approaches, instruments, and vehicles that could broaden the financing options available for infrastructure projects and increase as well as diversify the investor base, potentially lowering the cost of funding and increasing the availability of financing in infrastructure sectors or regions where investment gaps might exist. Part II identifies the range of incentives and risk mitigation tools, both public and private, that can foster the mobilisation of financing for infrastructure, particularly those related to mitigating commercial risks.
