    RE: Response for FOIA Request 2017-00036

    This letter is a final response to your Freedom oflnformation Act ("FOIA") request dated May 25, 2017 and received on May 26, 2017. Your request has been assigned FOIA Number 2017-00036. Please reference this number in all correspondence concerning your request. You requested:

    1. Email to or from the Office of Management and Budget between May 1, 2017 and the present.

    2. All letter correspondence to or from the Office of Management and Budget between May 1, 2017 and the present.

    3. All letter correspondence to or from Congressional offices or Committee Offices or Subcommittee Offices between May 1, 2017 and the present.

    This letter is a final response to your request. On April 25, 2018, OPIC provided you with a partial response on Item 3 of your request and notified you that it needed to consult with 0MB before completing processing on the other two items. OPIC has now received a consultation response from 0MB and is therefore completing its processing. This letter responds to Items 1 and 2 of your request and includes 201 pages of e-mails. Partial and full redactions have been made under FOIA Exemptions b(4), b(5) and b(6).

    The FOIA contains nine exemptions which authorize an agency to withhold qualified information. Exemption b(4) protects: (1) trade secrets; and (2) commercial or financial information obtained from a person [that is] privileged or confidential." 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(4) (2012). A report that was provided to OPIC has been withheld under Exemption b(4). The report is not authorized for redistribution under the license through which it was purchased. You

    Overseas Private Investment Corporation 1100 New York Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20527 202.336 .8400 I www.opic.gov

  • may, however, purchase this report yourself and the title of the report is provided at the point of redaction.

    The FOIA contains nine exemptions which authorize an agency to withhold qualified information. Exemption b(5) protects "inter-agency or intra-agency memorandums or letters which would not be available by law to a party other than an agency in litigation with the agency." 5 U.S.C. § 552(b )(5) (2012). One type of exempt record is that protected by the "deliberative process privilege." Records which are pre-decisional and deliberative in addition to inter or intra agency are protected. See Jordan v. Dep't of Justice, 591 F.2d 753, 774 (D.C. Cir. 1978) (en bane); Vaughn v. Rosen, 523 F.2d 1136, 1143-44 (D.C. Cir. 1975). This privilege serves the important goals of: 1) encouraging open and frank discussions of policy within the government, 2) protecting against premature disclosure of policies before they are adopted, and 3) protecting against public confusion which might result from disclosure of the reasons and rationales that were not in fact ultimately the grounds for an agency's action. See, ~ Russell v. Dep't of the Air Force, 682 F.2d 1045, 1048 (D.C. Cir. 1982); Costal States Gas Corp. v. Dep't of Educ., 617 F.2d 854, 866 (D.C. Cir. 1980). OPIC has withheld drafts and discussion of drafts that were shared between OPIC and 0MB as part of the deliberative process. Most of the documents which were withheld as drafts are included as an attachment in their final or near final stage. Withholding the drafts and their related discussion allows OPIC and 0MB to frankly discuss the data and calculations and also protects against public confusion which may result from the release of complicated and often government accounting specific discussions.

    Exemption b(6) of the FOIA protects information about individuals in "personnel and medical files and similar files" when the disclosure of such information "would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy." 5 U.S. C. § 5 5 2(b )( 6). The exemption was meant to be interpreted broadly and is not tied to the label of the file containing the information. United States Department of State v. Washington Post Co., 456 U.S. 595 (1982). Exemption b(6) is therefore applied when the private interest in keeping personal information is greater than the public interest in disclosure. Dep't of the Air Force v. Rose, 425 U.S. 352, 372 (1976). The only public interest relevant in a b(6) inquiry is the public interest in knowing what the government is up to. Dep't of Defense v. Fed. Labor Rel'n Auth., 510 U.S. 487,497 (1994). OPIC has withheld the direct contact information of individuals under Exemption b(6). This information is tied to a particular individual and allows direct access to that individual, but does not reveal any government action. Exemption b(6) has also been applied to life events, ie. births, weddings, vacations, etc.

    As an "all other requesters," you have been provided two hours of search and all review time at the agency's expense. Fees for your request total less than $25.00 and are therefore not charged.

    This is a final agency response. You may contact me or the FOIA Public Liaison for any further assistance and to discuss any aspect of your request. Additionally, you may contact the Office of Government Information Services (OGIS) at the National Archives and Records Administration to inquire about FOIA dispute resolution services they offer. The contact information for OGIS is as follows:

    If you are not satisfied with OPIC's response to this request, you may administratively appeal by addressing a written appeal to the following:

    Deputy General Counsel Overseas Private Investment Corporation 1100 New York Ave., N.W.-12th Floor Washington, D.C. 20527

    Your appeal must be postmarked or electronically transmitted within 90 days of the date of this response to your request. Both the envelope and the letter should be marked "FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT APPEAL." The appeal should clearly identify the agency determination that is being appealed and include the request number. If you are not satisfied with the results of any such appeal, judicial review is available to you in the United States District Court for the judicial districts in which you reside or have your principal place of business, or in the District of Columbia.

    President’s Budget Proposal: Wind-Down of OPIC

    Overview of the Proposal

    The Administration’s 2018 Budget prioritizes rebuilding the military and making critical investments in the Nation’s security. It also identifies the savings and efficiencies needed to keep the Nation on a responsible fiscal path. To do so, the Administration seeks to redefine the proper role of the Federal Government by streamlining government programs and reducing unnecessary Federal interventions that distort the free market. As part of this effort, the Administration has decided to cease new business operations and proceed with the wind-down of the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) starting in FY 2018. The Budget requests $60.8 million to manage the agency's remaining $22 billion portfolio and initiate orderly wind-down activities beginning in FY 2018.

    Because of the long- term nature of OPIC’s portfolio, the wind-down of OPIC’s operations will happen over several years, beginning with no new origination or promotion of new credit and insurance activities starting October 1, 2017.

    1 Due to the timing of the passage of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017 (PL 115-31), the FY 2018 Budget uses the FY 2017 Annualized Continuing Resolution as its FY 2017 baseline. P.L. 115-31 provided $70 million in budget authority for OPIC's administrative expenses and $20 million in budget authority for credit program subsidy.

    Investing in Portfolio Monitoring and Evaluation

    The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017 provides a $7.2 million increase over OPIC’s FY 2016 budget for administrative expenses. OPIC will prioritize the use of these additional resources to improve OPIC’s capabilities in the monitoring and evaluation of projects. Since OPIC's portfolio is currently greater than $22 billion, it will be critical to maintain active monitoring to preserve the financial and developmental value of the portfolio and avoid any losses to the taxpayer.

    A recent report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO)[footnoteRef:2] recommended that OPIC further strengthen its project monitoring for compliance with OPIC’s policies. OPIC agreed with the recommendations and will be implementing them with the additional resources provided in the FY 2017 appropriations. OPIC has also determined to use its FY 2017 funding to implement other recommendations to increase site monitoring and to add a new element of strategic evaluations for development outcomes related to projects nearing the end of their OPIC support. [2: http://www.gao.gov/assets/680/674142.pdf#page=68]

    Even as OPIC prepares for a wind-down beginning in FY 2018, OPIC will continue to upgrade its information technology to attain and maintain modern industry standard practices in data management. This will benefit OPIC’s internal monitoring and evaluation, as well as OPIC’s customers, co-lenders and insurers, its external co-financers, auditors, and its Congressional oversight panels as OPIC seeks to wind-down its existing portfolio while still protecting the taxpayer against portfolio risks.

    Reporting Systems – Treasury, OMB, OECD, and external audit requirements necessitate continuing operating systems and technology management upgrades. Compliance with various government-wide requirements, continuous operations and maintenance, and a needed rolling replacement of obsolete and unreliable equipment require continued investment, even under a wind-down scenario. Meeting new reporting requirements that are already mandated will necessitate the development of new reporting solutions that include data analytics and visualization to enable accurate corporate reporting and more informed evaluation of exposures.

    Analysis of OPIC’s Portfolio

    Growth and Composition

    As of March 30, 2017, the Corporation had combined total exposure of $22.5 billion. This amount includes undisbursed commitments (obligations), outstanding balances on OPIC’s loans, and maximum contingent liability under OPIC’s insurance contracts. The graph below shows the growth and composition of the portfolio since 2014.

    Figure 1 Growth and Composition of OPIC Portfolio (2014-2017)

    Geographic and Sector Composition of OPIC’s Portfolio.

    OPIC’s geographic and sector breakdowns are below. OPIC’s investments in fragile and conflict-affected countries represents roughly one-third of the agency’s total portfolio.

    Figure 2 Portfolio by Geographic Region

    Figure 3 Portfolio by Sector

    Longevity of portfolio.

    OPIC’s portfolio contains more than 500 active projects in almost 100 countries that will require financial and policy monitoring for years following the start of a wind-down in FY 2018 in order to minimize the risk to American taxpayers.

    Figure 4 Estimated wind-down of OPIC portfolio

    Functions that Continue under Wind-Down

    Loan documentation – The President’s Budget assumes that OPIC will cease all new origination and promotion of new credit and insurance activities starting October 1, 2017. However, OPIC will continue to authorize new financing via commitment letters through September 30, 2017, consistent with its current Congressional authorization. After OPIC has executed a commitment letter, at which point OPIC is legally committed to provide financing, OPIC proceeds to negotiate and execute final transaction documentation which then implements OPIC's commitments. Those documents include finance agreements and insurance contracts as well as a wide variety of ancillary agreements that relate to such critical elements. These include agreements that lay out the terms of project completion support, collateral security, other credit support, inter-creditor relationships and many other key components of the underlying transaction.

    Portfolio management – OPIC’s $22.5 billion portfolio will need ongoing management for years into the future to protect taxpayers’ investments. Management of the portfolio includes everything involving protecting the rights of OPIC in the transaction – this means routine invoicing and collection, minor waivers, amendments and changes in project structure or ownership, workouts and ultimate collection or charge-off amounts due or guaranteed. When OPIC works through third party lenders, service providers or other intermediaries, it must maintain adequate oversight to confirm that these counterparts are implementing sound credit and administrative procedures, generating adequate underwriting documentation and achieving expected performance and impact.

    Project monitoring – OPIC performs comprehensive and integrated monitoring to evaluate the U.S. and host-country economic effects as well as the environmental, social, health and safety, and general working conditions of the projects it supports. OPIC complies with all statutory and contractual requirements by monitoring projects throughout their lifecycle. OPIC monitors its projects to ensure that its statute and policies are implemented across all OPIC-supported projects. This includes congressionally mandated statutory requirements and general OPIC policy requirements. Specifically, OPIC strives to ensure that all OPIC-supported projects:

    · Apply consistent and sound environmental standards

    · Apply consistent and sound worker rights standards

    · Observe and respect human rights

    · Have no negative impact on the U.S. economy, and

    · Encourages positive host country development effects

    Disbursements – All OPIC disbursements require close coordination between the Origination/Monitoring Officer, Legal Affairs, Office of Investment Policy, the credit reviewing official and Financial Management. Proper and sufficient disbursement documentation and procedures are critical to ensuring that OPIC can disburse funds in a timely manner and has the legal recourse and protection envisioned when credit is approved. Due to the complexity and structure of OPIC projects, OPIC projects sometimes disburse over several years.

    Ongoing Agency Operations

    Agency operations staff ensure OPIC funds are being used as efficiently as possible by planning for and coordinating with all OPIC departments. Many of the critical operational functions have been assessed for potential efficiencies and cost savings through shared services options. However, there are mandated compliance requirements that must continue to be met to support functions including human resources, security and strategic operations, facility and administrative services, procurement, information technology (operations, maintenance, and security), and financial management services, such as accounting, budget and resource planning and risk management. It is also a priority to dedicate capital improvement funding for depreciating assets to ensure that OPIC remains on fully supported operating systems and platforms, thereby reducing the risk of cybersecurity disruptions.

    Functions Not Continuing

    As OPIC initiates a wind-down in FY 2018, OPIC will seek to reduce its staffing footprint significantly consistent with the vision of the President’s Budget through attrition and other workforce restructuring tools as necessary. Functions involved with new-transaction origination and business outreach will be phased down initially. Transaction staffing will be shifted to documenting and completing action on obligations. Thereafter, staffing will be reduced or reallocated so as to implement the wind-down while ensuring the Corporation takes necessary and proper steps to protect the taxpayer interest.

    Consistent with wind-down, the President’s Budget proposes no appropriation to the Program Account for the budget cost of new loans and loan guarantees. Similarly, the President’s Budget proposes no collections from future loans and loan guarantees.

    These steps will result in gross savings, as well as a reduction in net offsets. Both factors are presented in the President’s Budget, and will be updated in future releases and the forthcoming Mid-Session Review.

    Mission

    In 1971, OPIC was created to mobilize and facilitate the participation of U.S. private capital and skills in the economic and social development of less developed countries. In doing so, OPIC has created jobs both at home and abroad, leveraging private investment to support U.S. business as a force for good to reduce poverty, create opportunity, and improve lives. OPIC has done all of this while operating on a self-sustaining basis as mandated by Congress. Indeed, for almost 40 years, OPIC has not only covered all its costs on an annual basis, but it has generated significant additional revenue (by approximately $200-400 million per year), contributed to the 150 function, and helped reduce the Federal deficit.

    To achieve its mission, OPIC has provided financial products--including debt financing, insurance, and support for private equity investment funds--to American businesses operating throughout the developing world, including many frontier and post-conflict countries. By operating in strategically important countries that may be emerging from years of conflict or important political transformations, OPIC has served the national security and foreign policy goals of the United States while at the same time complementing U.S. development objectives. OPIC’s support has helped small farmers grow more food, encouraged lending to female entrepreneurs, and allowed low income countries to build more modern infrastructure—all of which has benefited the American businesses who have increased their revenue streams from new markets and expanded their employment here at home.

    APPENDIX A: Appropriations Legislation

    Waiver of Requirement to Reauthorize during FY 2017

    A waiver to continue OPIC’s core programs was enacted under Section 7061(b) of PL 115-31 (link). The waiver provides as follows:

    Sec. 7061(b) AUTHORITY - Notwithstanding section 235(a)(2) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, the authority of subsections (a) through (c) of section 234 of such Act shall remain in effect until September 30, 2017.

    Appropriations Legislation: Noncredit Account

    The Overseas Private Investment Corporation is authorized to make, without regard to fiscal year limitations, as provided by section 9104 of title 31, United States Code, such expenditures and commitments within the limits of funds available to it and in accordance with law as may be necessary: Provided, That the amount available for administrative expenses to carry out the credit and insurance programs shall not exceed $60,800,000: Provided further, That project-specific transaction costs, including direct and indirect costs incurred in claims settlements, and other direct costs associated with services provided to specific investors or potential investors pursuant to section 234 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, shall not be considered administrative expenses for the purposes of this heading.

    Appropriations Legislation: Program account

    Amounts available from prior year appropriations for the cost of direct and guaranteed loans may be used for the cost of modifying such loans, as defined in section 502 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.

    In addition, such sums as may be necessary for administrative expenses to carry out the credit program may be derived from amounts available for administrative expenses to carry out the credit and insurance programs in the Overseas Private Investment Corporation Noncredit Account and merged with said account.

Jamaica defaulted in 2010, there were no rated sovereign defaults in 2009, and Ecuadordefaulted in late 2008. Since 1983, all defaulters were among the 25% lowest-rated sovereign issuers.The global financial crisis has, however, continued to put pressure on sovereign creditworthiness, increasing the share of sovereign issuersin the lower tier of investment grade, says the Moody's study. Nevertheless, the share of issuers rated Aa and above is still substantiallylarger for sovereign issuers than for corporate issuers.A comparison between sovereign and corporate default rates by the rating agency shows that sovereign default rates have generally been,on average, modestly lower than those for corporates overall and by like rating symbol. However, the differences are not likely significantas the overall size of the sovereign sample is small. Further, over the 1983-2012H1 period of study, sovereign ratings have exhibited greaterstability than their corporate counterparts.The study presents an analysis of all sovereign defaults since 1983 and compares and contrasts sovereigns and corporates with regard todefault, migration, and recovery rates as well as ratings accuracy measures.
