Project / Programme Executive Summary (max 300 words) Please provide a brief description of the proposed project/programme, including the objectives and primary measurable benefits (see investment criteria in section E). The detailed description can be elaborated in section C. The DBSA Climate Finance Facility Programme (“the Programme” or “CFF”) is a lending facility that aims to address market constraints, play a catalytic role with a blended finance approach, to increase climate related investments in the Southern African region. The lending facility will consist of credit enhancements focused on first loss or subordinated debt and tenor extensions to catalyze private sector climate investments. The CFF will be a first-of-its-kind application based on the Green Bank model, adapted for emerging market conditions. It offers globally significant proof-of-concept value to middle and lower income nations seeking to address market barriers and quickly scale up the high levels of private investment required by Paris climate commitments. The CFF Programme will fill market gaps and crowd-in private investment, targeting commercially viable technologies that cannot currently attract market-rate capital at scale. It will focus on infrastructure projects that mitigate or adapt to climate change and utilize two main instruments: subordinated debt / first-loss and credit enhancements such as tenor extension to projects that are commercially viable but not currently being financed by the private sector banks. It should be noted that CFF will not fund projects that could be funded solely by commercial banks. Projects will be required to demonstrate that they are focused on technically and economically feasible transactions where there is market interest but limited

  • An Investigation of the Relationship Between Financial
    AN INVESTIGATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN NAMIBIA A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ECONOMICS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NAMIBIA BY SYLVIA KINYONDO 200321587 APRIL 2018 SUPERVISOR: PROF. J.P. S. SHEEFENI ABSTRACT The study investigates the relationship between financial development and economic growth in Namibia. It employed an auto-regression distributive lag modelling approach on quarterly data for the period 1995 to 2014. The study used the following variables, namely: ratio of broad money supply to gross domestic product, real gross domestic product (GDP), saving and interest rate. Firstly, the results of the unit root tests showed a combination of integration of order zero and one. Secondly, the results for co-integration revealed the existence of a long-run stable relationship among the variables. Thirdly, the ratio of broad money supply to gross domestic product was found to have a negative and statistical significant relationship with economic activity. This suggests a negative relationship between financial development and economic activity in Namibia. Similarly, real interest rate and saving were also found to have a negative and statistically insignificant relationship with economic activity. On the contrary, the lagged real gross domestic product was found to have a positive and statistically insignificant relationship with economic activity. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank the Almighty God for providing me with good health and blessings that were all essential throughout my study period. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor Prof.

  • The Monetary Sector Objectives
    UNIT 3 THE MONETARY SECTOR OBJECTIVES • Define money and explain the requirements of money • Describe the functions of money • Discuss the functions of a central bank and commercial banks • Describe the money creation process • Explain how the supply of money and the demand for money are determined • Explain the instruments of monetary policy DEFINITION OF MONEY • Money is any generally acceptable or accepted medium of exchange that is accepted in the payment of debts, and/or for goods and services rendered. DEFINITION OF MONEY • Gold and silver were once used as money, but today money consists primarily of paper notes, coins made of various metals and cheque account deposits. • Each country has its own system of money. – In Namibia we use the Namibian dollar, – South Africa uses the rand and – Botswana uses the pula. We call the money in use in a country its currency. BARTER ECONOMIES • Barter is the direct exchange of one good for another without using money as medium of exchange. • If people want to trade, there has to be a double coincidence of wants. • This means there is a need to find a match between what each of the two traders wants to obtain and what each wants to offer in exchange. • Barter system is not efficient and is time consuming process and not suitable for a modern economy where a wide range of goods and services are produced. What is money than? REQUIREMENTS OF MONEY Objects that we can use as money should meet the following requirements: – General acceptability: It should be desired and accepted by all as medium of exchange.
